It doesnt look up to date now, so unless they develop some special age defying & rejuvenating paint it will look more so in 12 months time. 
They have looked back at mg heritage and seen all previous models with an mg badge are at least 3 years out of date so decided not to break this tradition by launching the Mg 3 too soon.It doesnt look up to date now, so unless they develop some special age defying & rejuvenating paint it will look more so in 12 months time.

Everton benchmarking I know.
It will be fine, though peeps are talking of major changes, I won't hold my breath, remembering talk on here in the past regarding the MGR facelifts (there were people on here who swore that the 45/ZS were getting rebodied and that the facelifts were so radical you'd not recognise them over the previous models)
Let alone RDX60 or indeed the MG6.
I'll wait and see what happens, reserve final judgement til I see what in the flesh and see how it drives etc.
Styling is a subjective thing, many don't like the cutesy styling of a lot of small cars at the mo, or the fussy styling of most Korean/Japanese cars, fiesta etc.
The MG3 seems to fall somewhere in the middle, along with the swift and fabia, and funny enough I like the styling of these two cars too!
MG need to hit this bang on target though, full range, excellent drive, economy, emissions and I expect they know that!
At least facilities such as finance etc are there at launch, unlike when the 6 was Launched.
I agree, whilst it hasn't adopted the droopy and blobby look of cars like Citroen or Peugeot this is not a bad thing. Look at the rather squared and plain Polo, I bet VW get more life out of that design that PUG or Citroen do with theirs and the reason is that cars so styled towards fashion date horribly and rather quickly. Even Fiat with their Punto took a more conservative approach than Vauxhall did with the same platform and I'd argue the Punto still looks good, the Corsa looks dated.Says the man driving a prehistoric at launch maestro and ZS!

I personally like the look of the 3 - I just think the frontal arangement needs to be a little more bold which I think they might address in the Euro version.
As for the "out of date" comments from some on here, I also agree with you Peter, these are probably the same people who thought the ZS was fine in 2005 despite it very obviously being a 10 year old model, itself based on an even older one. Laughable really!
Bless there's no taste in your family at all
Is the merchandise being adapted from Chinese specification ? If so have they said which millennium for the launch ?
opcorn:The MG3 could be cool, time will tell if they manage to pull that off.

I saw an ignition blue ZS180 on the m6 and I did think what a cracking looking car, and I even found myself defending the ZT 260, the other week, someone dared to say they are only any good in straight line, I think I am spending to much time on here!
I had heard the leather patches on the elbow looked more like plastic so they are having a rethink on patch quality before launch.Is the merchandise being adapted from Chinese specification ? If so have they said which millennium for the launch ?
