Something like that, MG as first-rate color!

Was this an example of a good shot of MG according to you?
If so, we have totally different taste when it comes to color. I almost fell asleep watching it because it was so dull.

All joking aside, it looks like that in real life unfortunately. The edited pictures all over the board of MG looks awesome though.

It is not easy to make a choice between just 4 offered colours. For me MG is "the best" mediocre colour. Black or white was a non go, our black Audi S5 is a disaster to maintain, white is a no option for a detailer. LBB too much striking for an over-60, so MG was the best discreet/delicate choice of the four. But I can assure you, there are a lot more attractive colours. My current Space Gray would have been a better alternative.

The made a mistake not using Donington Grey instead if you ask me.
Yes they did !!
DG would be my nr 1 choice ! (if available)


Why do we have 1 shade of grey, while 50 shades of grey are available?

Well, I don`t like detailing so much as you

The M2 is by far a "mediocre" car, it earns a more striking, sparkling color IMHO......

Hopefully we won't have to wait for it on the BBC. I don't think they're going to let him do his YouTube stuff anymore.

I think you're missing the point entirely. There is nothing to ban him from. If, as it appears, Chris Harris is going to be a new presenter on Top Gear, his YouTube stuff will be a complete irrelevance to Harris. He will become a household name.

Maybe that one got also infected with the recent "Sorry-But-Had-To-Delete"-virus ?

MPE on my neighbors new M4 sounds sick I must say. I hear the M2 sounds better. We'll see. I told my neighbor it was their fault I want a new car, and that I hate them now.
