I think MG has a good proposition. They have commercial, they have passenger and electric car. And their backing is SAIC. They may be built in China, but they have some influence as a conti car. I think there is still a market for MG. It might take a while for them to fight some market share. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who will buy the CX5 if the same dealer can offer a rip off model for less money? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEAT, OPEL, ALFA, FORD, all struggling even having been in the market so many years. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevertheless the agent is so brave to venture into this. Within another decade, the world is gonna be flooded with MIC cars, given the vast variety of EVs and much better built quality (within its own price bracket). It is no secret that many established automobiles manufacturers are rushing to form alliance / JV with Chinese auto manufacturers in bid to tap onto their EV technology and lower production cost. As I have mentioned in the BYD thread, MIC cars today are very different from just a few years back. Try it out to feel for yourself before writing it off. 12 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The historical recommendation for Jag ownership - Please own a second car (non-Jag) so that you have a car to use during the frequent workshop visits or breakdowns. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know there’s these majority around whom are clueless about MIC cars so that prices of MG can be kept competitive and for those whom will appreciate! 6 hours ago, Carbon82 said: Within another decade, the world is gonna be flooded with MIC cars, given the vast variety of EVs and much better built quality (within its own price bracket).
