We bought ours, an auto about 8 months ago and have covered about 10,000 miles and I absolutely love it, but we can’t wait to replace it. Ours came from the sales centre at Longbridge that no longer has workshop support. We have a list of ongoing warranty faults which range from minior to quite major running issues and our 3 closest dealers all of which are around 3 hours away don’t want to know with excuses from “take it back where you bought it from” to “were far too busy to look at cars we didn’t sell” “ this dealer is closer than us” even though it’s not even an MG dealer anymore. I spoke to somebody in customer services who pointed out our nearest dealer was just over 40 miles away, unfortunately the Irish Sea is in the way! Not wanting to sound negative but just to bring some balance. Very good value for money as long as your local dealer is a good one and actually local. I will miss it but fingers crossed it will be gone before it’s first service is due.
