Ncap fail for mg3 hybrid

[LenEV2016]

I don't see how that is possible when the tests are dated September 2025?

that was they way I read the article also

 

[MG Clive]

That was the date of release, NOT the date of the tests !

What date are you referring to?

 

[Scotsman]

When was the actual euro ncap test done ?

 

[JonboyMG3Hybrid]

What date are you referring to?

As it clearly states, that was the date of the release, NOT when the tests were done... Simples !

 

[MG Clive]

When was the actual euro ncap test done ?

This report says September 2025.

 

[MG Clive]

Again, which date?

Again, which date?

If you actually took the time to look yourself, the press release is NOT the date that the tests were done, tests take anything up to eight weeks to process, complete and report, they NEVER take any longer than eight weeks from the time the car arrives at their compound to the press release.

To clarify the PRESS RELEASE is NOT the date that the tests were completed, they have a significant number of cars to test with various tests being completed, these take weeks, so the tests would have been completed from Late July, through to early September, with the majority of the main tests being completed early on.

Hopefully that now clarifies everything..... But to make sure, the date of September the 10th IS the press release date. NOT the testing date.

Yes of course I've looked myself, and I know the 10th is the release date, not the test date.

Umm, then why did you continually go on about dates if you, as you say, looked and knew....

Because I was referring to the date I posted here

It would appear that test was before then as the which website does state August for seat fix.

MG has told Euro NCAP that it has committed to improving the design of the seat latch mechanism so it won’t detach in the event of an impact. This applies to all vehicles manufactured from August 2025.

We’ve contacted MG for additional comment, including whether MG 3 owners in the UK need to take any action, but MG didn't immediately reply. We will update this news story when we get a response.

Just a faulty airbag not stopping your head rattling off things to worry about!!

Expect that the report is shared with the manufacturer before being published, hence we have applied the fix to all new cars from August.

Yes, the cars could have been tested in June/July, and MG informed in June/July, but the report not published until September.

 

[JonboyMG3Hybrid]

thats the date the report was written, as clearly defined by the fact it is on every page.

Ok, now it is clear that the date of the release 10th September is NOT the date of the testing, which is various dates in the eight weeks prior to the testing paperwork completion, AND prior to the release of the press release.... we can end the chat on that subject !

Hi Clive where do I find the build date for the mg3 hybrid

Sorry that should where is the build date on the plates on the car as that would put subscribers minds at rest if they can check when built i think?

Are you sure it wasn't the 10th September

You normally get a certificate of conformity with the car, I'd be surprised if any members cars were built in August and in their possession now, as they also need shipped from China

 

[Scotsman]

INFORMATION on the build date for your car can be found on the CERTIFICATE of CONFORMITY LEAFLET ,,found in the glove box ,date of manufacture will be found under the long vin number at the bottom of the page , IAM stuffed car was registered 15 August 25 built beginning of July 25 just when tests were getting done.?

 

[Scotsman]

Shouldn't take a month to ship the cars over only takes Temu a week .
