    First service due soon. Door damaged in a car park a bit expensive to replace without incsurance.

  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    It corners beautifully. I did 460 miles in it the other day and was not sore or stiff. A bit bumpy on poor quality roads, but that just gives it a sportier feel.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    It's faster than most and pulls away from standing quickly. Seams to lack a bit of power in 5th between 50-60.

    Just find a better looking, handling car for this price. They make take a second look everytime. It is NOT a Rover 45.

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Adjustable driver's lumber rests, in fact fully adjustable driver's seat adds to comfort. Interior is good, especially gear stick and the reminded in the steering wheel that you're driving an MG.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Apparently some issues with pre-Sept 02 models security system, which adds to the insurance, so get a Tracker.

    Service

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Superb, very helpful, friendly, comfortable. After-sales customer service excellent.
