Seriously :-( that was my go to dealer.

Spoke to my sales person who sadly confirmed no more MG sales. They will continue to do MG services though which is good.

Oh that’s interesting. Many thanks. If they continue to be authorised and official MG service agents why on earth did they not include that info in their email to customers?

Did the salesperson say official MG service agents or just that they will continue to service MG cars. My local village garage will service my MG and use MG parts but it doesn't mean he can access MG service records to update them and add another years breakdown cover or do software updates.

To be honest I didn't go in to that level of detail. My car is not due its first service until next year. But I will be sure to double check this.

MGs performance in China does indicate that the brand is on its way out, sorry to say.

Personally I doubt SAIC would kill off the MG brand name for exports to the UK - it is too valuable for their sales over here.

Seems unlikely seeing as their introducing new models at the moment . Probably won't sell much more in the US though

Interesting. The number I called them on previously was not working but I'm currently on hold to 02038332961

It put me through to Chiswick Honda, who told me that it's fully shut down including servicing, and that they have asked MG several times to remove it from the website!
