Looks a nice enough thing, but it'll be launched into a crowded market and it's not an MG!.....

Been waiting to see pic of this thank you.
Could be a cheaper rival to Kia Sportage and as such be of interest to me.
Looking for something to do my farm visits with where a bit more ground clearance and AWD will be handy. Plus need more rear headroom which is why I am selling my MG6 and the SUV looks like it has higher headroom from these pics. Will be very interested to try one when they arrive here in January.

Totally agree it is NOT an MG but it's also not as offensive to the eyes as the Nissan Juke doesn't have a silly name like the Juke and isn't from a car brand who's usual offerings rival only Diazipan. Hope it sells well.

It just looks like the Nissan Joke/Squashy soft roaders, I'd rather walk to be honest.

I think it's a step in the right direction for MG.

They need to get it out there ASAP to really tap in to the booming mini 4x4 market.... but they also need to get it right.

I want this to work so that one day we might see another sports car from this iconic brand - this can only happen once they get the bread and butter part of the business right.

MG Rover had plans of a 4x4 back in 2004, possibly before. Would we say that wasn't an MG had it come out?

They have to move with the market same as all the others. There are plenty of threads where someone including me says MG are too slow in doing anything!!
