MG X-Power Siting

ArcticGT · 11-20-2003, 05:41 PM

Well I was sitting at a light this evening and low and behold this is sitting next to me:

Bad Ass! Best part was he turned into my girlfriend's neighborhood and was parked across the street from her house. I got some night photos of this thing. Very impressive car, right hand driver. The guy was doing milage testing, but he said that there were no plans on bring the car to the US. Interesting none the less.

More info on the MG Xpower SV can be found here:

I thought it was a Dodge at first because of the front end and the quad openings!

Unfortunately I do not have acess to them at the moment, they are on my girlfriends camera. They were taken in the dark, so they did not come out all that great. It was an exact replica of the one seen in the picture at the weblink though. When I have acess to them I will post up though.

Post 'em anyway, I wanna see, I can lighten them up.

Also, what would it be doing here if they aren't planning on bringing it here? Makes no sense.

^^^Because they like to tease us American's...the SOB's!!

Yeah, it doesn't make any sense. Mileage testing? Here??? For what? If they are not planning to bring it here, then what's the point?

Cool. I'd like to see the pics too!!!

Believe it or not, auto manufactures buy other auto makers cars to see what they are doing and how they fair on the road, not to mention the guy could have been covering up if he was doing testing for an automotive magazine.

Ill get the pictures up, when I have access to them. It will be a few days though.

ArcticGT · 11-28-2003, 03:18 PM
