Cyberster suspension

[Juhani]

I don't know the exact specs, but I have next week a meeting with the KW dealer. As soon as I know more, I will let you know.

Even with distance I am interested lend car no prob if it takes even more than two weeks. There is no weather here in Finland for roadster until next april

Strange. I asked my contact at KW, and she said:

The MG Cyberster prototypes are almost ready to test fit in the vehicle.

The development is being handled by our subsidiary in China. They are also responsable for installing the suspension system.

Therefore, it will likely take until the end of this year before we can release it.

Anyway, promising...

Another Belgian owner (not on this forum) mentioned that the "driveshaft boots" on his GT were replaced because they were leaking. The whine could come from lack of lubrication. I would check those first.

I have some news from KW. As things stand at present, they do not yet have the suspension.

This is the answer from KW Switzerland in original:

Stand heute könnte die Entwicklung / Anbauversuch im ersten Quartal 2026 vorgenommen werden.​

​

KW Deutschland bräuchte das Auto dann auf jeden Fall für 3 Wochen, um alle Prüfungen (Teilegutachten) und die Abstimmungen auf dem Prüfstand zu machen.​

​

Preislich kann ich hier nur grob was sagen. Rechne hierzu mal mit CHF 1‘500.00 bis CHF 1‘750.00​

​

Wie schon erwähnt, geht die Anlieferung und Abholung zu Lasten des Kunden.​

​

Sprich, der Kunde muss das Fahrzeug selbständig nach Fichtenberg bringen, und dann drei Wochen später wieder dort abholen gehen.​

Translated with DeepL.com:

As things stand today, development/installation trials could be carried out in the first quarter of 2026.​

​

KW Germany would then need the car for at least three weeks to carry out all the tests (parts certification) and adjustments on the test bench.​

​

I can only give a rough estimate of the price here. Expect to pay between CHF 1,500.00 and CHF 1,750.00.​

​

As already mentioned, delivery and collection are at the customer's expense.​

​

In other words, the customer must bring the vehicle to Fichtenberg themselves and then collect it again three weeks later.​

That sounds very much like a test dummy to me. I don't even know the technical specifications. What kind of KW suspension will they install?

Questions:

• Is the handling better with the KW? I would like to drive on first.
• Disadvantages?
• What about MG's warranty? Does MG refuse to honour warranties?

But yes, I was annoyed by the suspension again last week in fast, undulating corners.
The suspension does not match the appearance of the Cyberster
