    Sir Alec Issigonis designed the Minor ("Mosquito") with 14" wheels for ride quality reasons. They were innovatively small, the smallest up till then had been 17"...

    "Your Next Car". Interesting slogan.

    With it being Flash, I can't copy the text for autotranslate, but on http://www.mgmotors.cl/frames/gal_6.asp it appears to say "Its design and bold personality will become the new object of male desire".

    So are they aiming it at women as reportedly MG in China? I think not...

    Just in case anyone translated the price of $10,990 into £7,593 and is thinking the MG6 is a bit of a bargan, it appears that the $ symbol actually means Chilean pesos and the conversion to UK pounds gives:

    $10,990,000 Chilean pesos = £14,116 British pounds for the base model.
