Wow a TV ad for MG! :D

Maybe when they've sold a few 3s they may have enough cash for an ad for the 6. ;)

Its good to see though, the 3 has all the ingredients to be a success.

There was an ad for the 6 Steve, just that it did not get much air time :(

Be interesting to see how many end up being used as school cars given the price of the 3Time and the fact it is a very easy car to drive, light on the clutch, hill hold assist, good visibility etc. which is why my wife wanted one instead of using the 6 around town. Low insurance and cheap servicing will off-set the tax and fuel economy.

Only ever seen one MG6 and that was on Doc Martin as a taxi. Touring cars don't count because they're nothing like the real thing.

Let's be brutally honest: that shouldn't be difficult...

Looks as though they've been sensible with the pricing this time, and despite some journalists dusting off the "struggling British Sports car maker" pre-fix to "MG", the reviews for the 3 have been generally pretty positive, coarse, old-fashioned, inefficient 1.5 litre engine aside.

They should have developed a 3-cylinder K-series ;)

Am I the only one thinking that this car already looks a little old? Still, for the price, it might be fun to get one :)
