Has anyone been paying attention to MG? I haven't and recently a friend of mine's father had just bought and imported an MG Xpower SV.

This thing is beautiful, I'll get real pics when I can. Anyone else seen any of the newer MG? All their models are new to me.
What other companies have I completely missed?
Its uh...interesting.
....as seen on Top Gear... check last season for the video of it in use. As I recall, its got the 4.6 liter Mustang Motor under the hood, and they have a 1000 total hp option (nitrous system)
MG officlly went bust earlier this year. They had a masive sale in oz to clear their stock. The remaining cars like this are rarities now. shame

And you'd have to really really want one to part with new 911 money for one.
...And now you have no more factory support either or warranty coverage. D'OH! The Chinese have bought the rights to the name as well as the spider model, and word is the 'new' MG convertible will be brought to the U.S in the next few years. Should be interesting...
