Jiangsu Provincial Govt puts MG into their procurement catalogue

---

The Chinese govt are the biggest car buyers in the world.

We have no idea if that statement is true, or not, but it probably is true. You see the Chinese city governments, especially in affluent Eastern cities like Nanjing, Shanghai, Dalian, Qingdao etc like to show they are affluent and what better ways to show than building great big city halls (or multiple great big city halls) and deck out your civil servants with fleets of Audi A4/A6′s or VW Passats. Audis/VW’s are made in China afterall, so the Chinese people are benefiting from their benevolent civil servants purchases. What would be better is if certain city or provincial governments were to buy wholly Chinese made vehicles and not just some joint venture made in China Euro brand, and this is what Jiangsu Provincial government are doing. Jiangsu Government, those top fellows based in Nanjing city, the capital of Jiangsu, have stuck the MG7 (both the 2.5 V6 and the 1.8T models) into the list of cars that are ‘A-OKAY’ to buy for those hardworking, newspaper rustling, card playing, baijiu drinking model civil servants.

China Car Times is not in the least jealous that a fair few a f*%king loads of people will be getting MG company cars over the next few years. We call upon China Car Times readers to petition Paul Stowe into giving us a test MG7, for a year, or more.
