Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

The car is a bundle of pleasant surprises, firstly it's so cheap to buy and you get so much car for your money. The handling is superb and the space inside is impressive. One massive plus for me was that there arent too many of the MG3 around where i live and i like to drive something a bit different. The running costs seem a bit higher than I expected, tax on mine is similar to my old family saloon and my MPG is mid 30s which I would have expected higher. Overall though, I think it's a great little car and if they are still making them when time comes to replace my 3 then I will purchase another.

How reliable do you find the car?

Little niggles which were easily fixed under warranty.

Does the car do everything you expected it to do?

I was expecting a good handling car from MG but my 3 has completely surprised me, it drives even better than I thought. Handling is great, steering is spot on plus I've got loads of space inside the car. I've got 14 week old twins and I can easily fit their car seats, double buggy and numerous other bits inside the car.
