New MG6 - Page 2

This is just my opinion, but sadly it looks quite ordinary, nothing special

stunning red interior though.

I'm just waiting for MG to release some proper styled cars, they seem to be quickly catching up with the rest of the car manufacturers. I'm hoping it wont be long until MG hit the big time again, bring on the MG sports car.

Looks a great motor in red, more like a Jag XE but if the engines match up to competitors with 7 year warranty why not?

I think it looks good - Jaguar-ish which is no bad thing - and if it's cheap then I might be tempted. But (and it's a big but), the ZS has launched with a laughably useless towing limit of 500Kg considering it's a fair sized car. I'd only consider the 6 if it was rated for towing 1200Kg+ otherwise you might as well save some cash and buy the 3

I dont particularly Rav, but either way, they are keeping the marque alive.. And I think if yo had a drive of Anna's diesel MG6 you would love it..

When these go wrong the bill is £400. Why sadle your customers with big bills for what is a brake used only to keep the car stationary when already still?

I know - don't see the purpose of changing something that already works well.. and as you say they cost a fortune when they go faulty.. waste of time..

Manufacturers will do anything to reduce weight, less weight equals more fuel efficiency, lower tax band. Also it makes more room in the interior. I’ve been around electric handbrakes for quite a few years now and only known one fail.

It's fabulous, I love it. It definitely has its faults and there are a few things that aren't great which is a real shame as the drive is second to none.
