Default Next Year MG7?

I had a Phone call tonight from MG Cars regarding if I still wanted the New TF or any other models.
I said I was only interested in the MG7 and the reply was this is due to be launched in UK next year.
My name has been put down for info on release and Test drives.
Brochures are also being dispatched for other new MG Cars due for release in UK next year.

If this comes about that will be great,
a replacement or new car to go with my current one.

I have to say that the MG7 is a good looking car, although it does need bigger wheel arches IMHO.

Also IMHO, it doesn't have the classic timeless look of the 75/ZT. It looks just like any other modern car i.e. nothing really special.

I'm not saying that I wouldn't buy one but it wouldn't really have the same attraction for me as a 75/ZT.

The MG7 is/was the NAC version of the ZT. http://www.autocar.co.uk/CarReviews/...G7-1.8/225361/

Be surprised if it sells well here as it's a 10 year old design. Hope I'm proved wrong!

Be interesting to see what diesel engine is used in it; I'm guessing there's a KV6 & K4 Turbo version planned for the UK. It needs an oil burner version too.

Quite correct, Tatts.

Its the MG6 that I was thinking of - and probably what JDC was referring to also.

Default MG7 in the UK?

IF - the MG7 arrives here next year at a sensible price, I know what my next motor will be - no contest.

Remember that the MG7 is being sold in Chile and Peru by SK Berge group.
Here in Argentina a couple of embassies brouhgt a few brand new.
And we hope to see them in our market soon.
Rover and MG have a very good and strong image at many many countries all over the world.
May be this are not large markets. But in Argentina you can see thousands of Rovers everywere on the streets of Buenos Aires and other places.
And people see this cars with respect. Not like those "plastic" new ones.
