    You can tell from these pictures already it has a cheap interior! Rolling Eyes

    Seriously, this looks a little too much like a Hyundai i20 or i30 but I will reserve judgement until seen without the camoflage.

    Eh? How on earth can you tell that from these photos? Anyway, this is a mule to test out running gear, etc. What does this firm have to do to please people - get the interior from the top range Over Finch????

    Must have a good forward parking sensor to avoid totalling the front spoiler on that low bar.

    Otherwise, it NEEDS a diesel, it NEEDS three doors, it NEEDS more spoilers and it NEEDS 19" wheels. It also NEEDS a road test off some random cook with his own helicopter, and it should have been launched 40 years ago.

    I agree with you on the parking sensors!

    Hopefully the parking sensors are better than the "you've hit something" sensors on the 75 ?

    Or the "continuous squeal when wet" sensors fitted to the TF LE500 and 85th that had to be changed under warranty. In fairness the MG6 sensors work well, but the reverse camera could do with some scaling lines as I have seen on other makes. The Hyundai 4x4 has a clever screen built into the interior mirror.

    Gosh I'm months behind having only just found this forum. But this post tickled me. I know precisely what you're getting at. It's refreshing to see this being posted without a torrent of abuse as a follow up!

    it's normally the other way round, suggesting a more everyday version of car than "turbo nutter" gets an awful lot of flak.
