This is my car for the past 3 years come this July; cheap, sporty hatchback with sporty designs and nice interior. Other than that it is what it is pretty basic. But so far I’ve enjoyed my time driving it as my mainstay car. It may not be as good as Kia but the MG feels quite decent and I’m satisfied with it.

It's decent motoring for sensible money

I have had 2. Currently own one now, I love them. Someone below mentioned the Sandero. MG3 can be thrown around sticks to the road like glue, Sandero wobbles like a jelly. Much prefer the MG range …

@BuckleUpShow Жыл бұрын

The MG is susceptible to rather sudden understeer when driven on the limit, but that limit certainly feels faster than in a Sandero, which incidentally also suffers from sudden understeer

Everyone complains how cars have become too bloated with all the new tech, well here is a car that is simple, looks nice and F all tech.

I know so many people who are irritated by all the equipment that's fitted to basically every modern car, it's nice to get into something that's new without all of it

Very dated vehicle but that can be a good thing. The driving experience takes you back.

I’ve had mine 2 yrs and this is a very good summary, it’s not perfect by any means but definitely a fun engaging little car with character , sounds like the new hybrid ticks many of the missing boxes 👍

@BuckleUpShow 5 ай бұрын

We're getting the hybrid on test soon, so far we've only taken it for a short test drive but we liked it a lot

Hi, I plan to buy my first car. I have a few cars in mind but can't decide. Can you help me rank them? The options are Honda Brio, Mazda CX-3, Nissan Almera Turbo, and MG3. Thank you.

@BuckleUpShow 8 ай бұрын

We don't get the Brio in the UK, we also don't get the Almera Turbo but I have experienced the mexican market version of that car. The Mazda will probably be the most fun to drive, the Nissan will probably be the most comfortable so depending on what you want u would pick one of those

@Joe.Don8 3 ай бұрын

Would you say the reliability is good for an MG3? Like how often am I gonna be going to mechanic with complaints and spending hundreds to get it repaired? I’m currently driving a Mitsubishi Mirage which has a great reliability. But I need something new and I’ve had my eye on an MG3 for a while

@BuckleUpShow 3 ай бұрын

This model is no longer sold new, but it has a seven year warranty which should give you peace of mind on reliability

currently deciding on my first car on Motability. Went today to look at the suzuki ignis which i am deadset on however when i got to the dealership i saw this mg and fell in love. However after watching the negative reviews about this mg being bumpy- useless suspension, slow start going up in speed. What would you pick? Suzuki seems more nimble and better suspensuion. What advantages does either have over eachother?

@BuckleUpShow 7 ай бұрын

This definitely rides harder, I would go with the Ignis

The brakes don’t work in a serious emergency. They delay for upto 3-4 seconds. I mean do a holy crap im having a head on with a truck braking. I have driven 9 different mg3 and there all the same. I contacted the importer they are not doing anything. I contacted the factory they ignored me. I contacted the government testing dept they couldn’t be bothered, a insurance asser friend said the insurance companies know about it but don’t care. It doesn’t matter as its not their lives at risk.

Have one if these as a hire car at the moment, unable to refuel due to the fuel cap release is not working, anyone else had this issue. I bought petrol a few days ago without an issue.

Have you called the hire company?

@danielprest5887 7 ай бұрын

@BuckleUpShow no, I got it open in the end, used one of my plastic tyre levers from my mountain bike gently wiggling, and it popped open, sprayed some DW40 on the catch/mechanism and gave it a clean. No issues now.

@BuckleUpShow 9 ай бұрын

It's a more intelligently designed car, massively practical interior and the HEV system gets me better economy than Hyundai's mild hybrid personally. It costs more though so you would expect it to do things better. However if I had the budget for a brand new Jazz I would probably try and swing an i20n because I'm a petrol head

All about badge snobbery ….. put a Ferrari badge on it and it would be priced at £100K

@BuckleUpShow Жыл бұрын

I would love it if Ferrari announced a small hatchback, mostly because they'd come up with some new preposterous name for that segment of vehicle in order to claim they don't make hatchbacks
