It looks like it might be a long wheelbase model

The very same car can be seen in Graham Philips YouTube video where he visited longbridge appeared to have been parked for a while.

Can't help but wonder who owns it with that reg plate.. mg02nac.

Nanjing automative corporation? Later went on to make the roewe which if I remember correctly when made in china were based on the lwb version

It was parked at Longbridge last time I was there about 3 years ago. I believe it was used originally for driving ‘guests’ to and from the plant.
