Great quick review. Made me smile all the way through, the quality was somthing way above what I expected. I recently test drove the ZS and was quite surprised by that and enjoyed it. I think MG are learning quick and have brought a british marque to the modern era. Great review I'd hope to test one of these when one comes to a dealer near me.

Simon Ingram (from the BBC Pronunciation Unit) British English dictionaries give aytch as the standard pronunciation for the letter H. However, the pronunciation haytch is also attested as a legitimate variant. We also do not ask broadcasters who naturally say haytch to change their pronunciation but if a broadcaster contacted to ask us, we would tell them that aytch is regarded as the standard pronunciation in British English, people can feel very strongly about this and this pronunciation is less likely to attract audience complaints. Haytch is a standard pronunciation in Irish English and is increasingly being used by native English-speaking people all across the country, irrespective of geographical provenance or social standing. Polls have shown that the uptake of haytch by younger native speakers is on the rise. Schoolchildren repeatedly being told not to drop Hs may cause them to hyper-correct and insert them where they don't exist.

If they was to come out with an MG3 using that 1.5 Turbo and add android auto that would be great

James 7176 : MG have already got a 3 with a 1.5 turbo, it was shown at the MG Silverstone event in 2016. It was developed by the MG engineers at Longbridge with an output of 200bhp! They also have an automatic which is currently on all MG3’s sold in Australia, even my MG dealer has suggested they bring out an auto, but the Chinese are very reluctant to do so in the U.K. They treat the U.K. as a very niche market, MG’s main market is the Far East and India. There is a new very attractive MG6, again developed at Longbridge with various performance modifications, but again the Chinese will not release it here, it’s only available in China, Thailand and India. My dealer tells me there is a sports car in development which he’s seen at Longbridge, whether that comes to fruition time will tell. MG have a lot going on, but their main development is in SUV’s, that’s where the sales are world wide, which to me is a very bland and boring market, but that bubble will burst!

Thank you for your comment George. As time go on and MG develop they will get more frugal engines again.

Wasn’t the Diesel engine a derivative of the Rover L Series engine that was revised at about the time Rover collapsed? I had the L Series in a Rover 45 - decent engine but I’d be a bit suspect if they were still selling that engine now in 2021!

Shame that MG are bringing out great cars like the HS and the ZS EV but can't deliver them at any meaningful volume. With a main stream manufacturer you would be told your car is build week X and that delivery from then would be Y weeks when placing an order. Not so with MG who claim impressive car sales but are these cars really sold? (orders and deposits taken not cars delivered!) It seems that MG wait to see what the next ship brings in, park them all up in a field and then distribute to dealers from the front of that parking lot to the rear hoping that the thousands of orders already taken some how match up what the boat brought in and that the spec/colour combinations they blindly predicted will sell. If you want to compete with the big boys great products are only part of the story MG. Placed an order within the first weeks of release and being told car may be here Feb/March 2020. Not good enough MG, customers should be given better timelines than these. If you can't meet the same excellence as other makes in terms of build time then at least you could allocate cars to customers as they leave the line, not waiting for then to arrive in UK. I have been told that 10 days warning of your car arriving at the dealership is the best you get after waiting months for a delivery date. I'm likely to withdraw my order soon as no news is not good news.
