Yep, I agree.The ride/handling balance is great for the RWD versions and definitely one of the strengths.
My car does not feel like a budget car to me, which was a pleasant surprise, I like the materials and the minimalist style. I know some people prefer a traditional cabin, fine, there are alternatives like that.
In fact there are only 2 things standing in the way of me declaring ownership being generally 'brilliant':
- Better communication from MG and from that better service from dealers
- Getting all the updates out onto owner's cars quickly, efficiently and reliably.
Mine is brilliant then, my dealer is great and I'm not fussed about updates unless they are to fix something.The ride/handling balance is great for the RWD versions and definitely one of the strengths.

OTUD?Yep, I agree.
It’s what surprised me the most abt the car along with it being RWD.
Slight negative is the lack of OTUD’s as I’m so used to the Tesla’s integration
If you're using Android Auto or Apple Carplay, perhaps try an app like TuneInn radio. The sound quality is night and day different (better) from the stock radio...
TBH, the only thing I don't like is the poor radio reception.
Thanks, but I meant the stock radio.If you're using Android Auto or Apple Carplay, perhaps try an app like TuneInn radio. The sound quality is night and day different (better) from the stock radio
You can get the national and local stations on these apps too, so it can completely replace the traditional radio - assuming you have a signal for the data where you are.Thanks, but I meant the stock radio.
The sound quality is excellent when I get a good reception, it's mainly the fact that I lose the signal on anything but the BBC Radio stations, it's worse on DAB that FM
Sorry, yes over the air updates!OTUD?
Yes, Tesla system is far superior in this area - although frustratingly locked into Tesla apps and idiosyncrasies and no CarPlay/AA.Sorry, yes over the air updates!
Typing without reading glasses and speaking text have got the better of me!
Not sure it’s a European (Cyprus) problem or not but I can’t get DAB radio to work at all..Agreed ... and that's the only additional consideration - you need a data connection on your phone for such apps. (Which isn't usually a problem for most people).
But the audio quality via the app is certainly better than DAB. (Can't comment re. FM as I can't remember the last time I listened to an FM station).
Cyprus | Countries | WorldDABIn June 2021, the Department of Electronic Communications initiated a new tender procedure, the result of which was successful and the contract for the Development of a Study on the Operation of Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB+) in Cyprus, was awarded.
The Duration of the contract execution is 12 months from the date of the commencement of the implementation of the contract.
Following this, in August 2022, the Department of Electronic Communications awarded a contract to LS telcom AG for a study to examine the technical, regulatory, licensing and commercial models which may enable the successful launch of DAB+ services across the Republic of Cyprus. The project is due to be completed in 2022 and will lead to the launch of DAB+, bringing clearer reception for the island’s many existing broadcasters as well as the scope for new services to be launched.
