Default UK Roewe 750

OK, so here's a question - are there any examples of the Roewe 750 in the UK?

Now they would be a talking point at a show!!

I’ve never seen or heard of any in this country. I wonder where they where sold? Was it China only?

Yep, they're just rebadged 75's. You could buy Roewe badges & stick them on
Peru & Chile got them in 2008 renamed MG 750

I thought they were a bit more than just a new badge? Wasn’t the interior ‘modernised’ along with the bumpers and wheels. No diesel option if I remember right. In fact, was it only available with the KV6?

I suppose I could just go and look at google!

Andy, if you mean that Roewe 750 is LWB they are just 10cm longer - length is
4,865 mm (191.5 in). Genuine British LWB is 20 cm longer .

I emailed a dealer in the UAE about in porting one to the UK and had no reply, plus I emailed MG UK with the same question and again no reply.

You need to speak to a dealer in China, they will be far more accommodating.
