Roewe is in a state, Nanjing MGTF about to go on the market – Part Two


In part one of ‘Roewe is in a state, Nanjing MGTF about to go on the market‘ we showed you the Nanjing MGTF, but what we didnt show you were the comments that were left on the original Chinese language article about the Nanjing MGTF coupe at QQ.com’s Auto Channel.

Commenter A:

Its looks so good, I cant put it into words!

Commenter B:

Thats just a Rover, I’ve no interest.

Commenter C:

A classic photoshop, the first picture has Nanjing MG Logos, then they have all gone.

Commenter D:

Rotten Car

Commenter E:

I bet Nanjing MG wrote this as they are fighting with their backs to the river now, to give Nanjing MG workers some encouragement! Actually Nanjing MG products are becoming less and less in the market, also their quality levels are getting worse by the day. Do you want to rely on a MG vehicle? Thats basically impossible, everybody knows Ying Ge Er (an old Seat Ibiza design that Nanjing markets under the Soyat brand) Unique (panel van) Yue Jin, and the Fiat Palio – not a single one of them is a good vehicle, the quality is too low! The Nanjing brand in peoples hearts and minds is already too low. You can put it like this, if I was to buy a car, it wouldn’t be a Nanjing made vehicle, because they don’t guarentee the quality! At the same time If if I was to recommend a British vehicle, I would say SAIC’s quality is better. SAIC’s state of affairs are in much better shape than Nanjing MG’s. SAIC can guarantee the quality of their vehicles, because Nanjings back is against the water, and they want to rely on MG, creating a layer upon layer of pressure that cant possibly result in reliable and steady quality from Nanjing.

    Bitter truth for those British MG fans, PWC want to sell more money much more than give MG an opportuinity to revive.

  2. Hmmm I have a question. Why is the Roewe 750 so heavy? Yes it’s been stretched, but it’s still a lot heaver than the original car it was based on. Could it be that SAIC are using cheap steel to make their version of the MG ZT? If so how safe will it be? For this reason I’ll be buying an MG, oh and it won’t depreciate as fast as a brand no one in the west recognises.
