I was going to post this for a few days ago as at the weekend out here there was a detailed article on the “Return of MG in Europe” which I read. Now after the Goodbye comment from Scimitargtc and the interest from Gloucester I thought I would just do it and post some facts not all but hopefully just enough. Interesting looking !
Now whether this is of interest or not is another point - so here we go Dave 👍😉
In 1990 I came over to Berlin with my MG Metro Turbo, which was bought from Belgium LHD and converted in the UK to RHD which was a lot cheaper. Never had any problems with it until the Turbo would not work as we were driving to the Ferry 😡

Hi Dave, I was looking at the PHEV version which seems interesting, just looked online not in the flesh. Perhaps an option next time I trade as I am not a fan of the new QQ mild hybrid.

Hi Dave, that's the one, lovely looking car. But of course something else might take my fancy by the time it comes to change the QQ.

Were there some doubts surrounding the crash worthyness of some models ?

Buffy, I think your comment is correct for the original models, but designs and improvements do occur and it looks like the Safety Issues have or are being overcome. Here are a couple of comments FYI - Dave 😉
