I'd rather be parked between a pair of them than a pair of Hulkers.

Am surprised about the front end. I thought cutting edges like that were
banned now.

Alsooo. The top two pix are either different models or the second one has
been badly Photoshopped. Those cutting edges on the top pix should be
easily visible on the middle pix. There's also an anomaly between the B/C
pillar on the top two pix and the rear spoiler on middle pix isn't visible
on the bottom one. Yes, it may be retractable, but I suspect that MG have
used the House of Kardashian & Jenner Photoshoppers.

Errrk. I wouldn't throw my pickles from Mcdonald's cheeseburgers at
that. Looks like Bruce from Finding Nemo! An Ancap rating will be
interesting.

Whilst they may be happy with the way they're heading, MG, LDV, Great
Wall, and Haval (SAIC) still have to overcome massive quality issues. I
wouldn't spend my hard earned on any of their shit. Paint with iron
filings, electronics that just don't work, parts.... and then there's
resale... nup. Probably should have 218% tariffs applied, like the
tarrifs on our Barley, beef, wine, lobsters...,coz they'll all end up in
landfill. china dont accept recycled waste anymore.

Something not right with those images of that fugly thing, the front and
side profiles don't match. Photoshop fail.

You'd need to see this thing in the flesh, or at least better photos
that haven't been attacked by a photoshop fanatic to get a better idea
of what it's really like.

Benz and Lexus, on the other hand, make ridiculously ugly cars :)

**Points:

* NO MG ever looked good.
* I will wait until I see the final product, before making a judgement.
* I will wait until I see the thing in the flesh. I saw lots of photos
of the new Supra. It looked like shit. In the flesh, however, the Supra
looks damned good.

The Chinese ones certainly. Some of the old British things were okay. I
always thought the MG-A was quite stylish for the late 1950's.

In the case of this thing you may not ever.

In your opinion. Personally I don't think Toyota have ever made a good
looking car in their entire history :)

LOL, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Many people think that the E Type Jag is the best looking car ever made
but others don't agree, its all subjective.

I'm not sure I'd put too much weight on the opinion of someone who
thinks a bunky Navara, a 50's "truck" and Fords modeled after a block of
Coo... oops I mean Cheer cheese are appealing :-)

I doubt photoshop, more likely some sort of 3D render program.

I can pretty much guarantee you as sure as I'm sitting here that if it

I have indeed seen it, and no, I do not find it to be a "damned good
looking car" at all. Not even close in fact. It looks like what it is: A
Toyota 86 with a really bad body kit.

Photoshop does 3D rendering.
