Will electrics be by Lucas? Prince of darkness?

My very 1st car was a red 67 MG, what a POS, But I had a lot of fun in that POS

I bet it burns faster than a Tesla!

This new MG concept is damned nice looking car. But I’m not buying a vehicle from the ChiComs. No way, no how.

"Though it's under Chinese ownership these days"

That makes it a no go for me after what the CCP did w/ the Virus. Folks, they want to own the EV Revolution and supplant us. Ditto that in this Ev-VTOL (manned carrying drone) marketspace. Will Xi-O'Biden sell out MI, OH, & IN w/ cheap Chicom EV's....

Worst name ever. I’m sure Chinese marketers came up with that.

The current fad of using LED lights everywhere reminds me of the era when the laser printer was invented and the explosion of fonts. Just because you have thousands of fonts available doesn’t mean you should use them all in every document you write. Too many fonts made a document really ugly.

Often, less is more and an understated elegance is much preferred.

Hopefully no Lucas parts. I will put this and Tesla’s truck on my shopping list!

First thing I thought of. Lucas switches have three positions: on, off and intermittent.

MG is Chinese.

MGs constantly leaked oil.

Fun car at the beach.

As long as it runs better than a Triumph TR3, the Brits can take a victory lap I guess.

Call me old school but they can shove the Tesla Roadster and all the rest of the electrified crap on wheels. I'll stick with internal combustion. Thank you.

I have had 3 MG midgets and a Sprite, I still have my 1979 MG Midget and drive it around every couple months or so. Last Year made for the USA

Ah Brit cars!

I had a 1952 MG-TD in 1972, light yellow with red radiator and red leather upholstery. Wonderful car, great show-off car, but had to sell it when I was shipped overseas. Dang thing had plaques on it’s dash from races at Lagunaire Seca and Watkins Glen.

Then I had a 1958 Morgan 4/4 in 1982 and spent most of my spare time rebuilding it. I had a sticker on the rear fender (attached to magnets that kept it from being glued to the paintwork) that said “all of the parts falling from this automobile are of the finest English workmanship”.

You couldn’t drive for very far without a toolkit and I had to lift the hood/bonnet every morning and sand the contacts for the fuses so it would start but it was a great-sounding and fast car that was fun to drive.

The company calls them "Magic Eye" headlights since they're not always on.

Well there is nothing new about that. They didn't call Lucas the Prince of darkness for nothing.

(to non auto buffs, Lucas was the manufacturer of MG electrical systems and they were not known for working well.

I have many fond memories from my old MGA. I upgraded the electrics when I installed the V8 in it. It became a baby Cobra after that.

Damn it! You beat me to it! I should have read the posts first.
