    Roewe should learn to leave a good thing alone. Now it looks like the previous generation Corolla S .. *shudder*

    I think it’s a touch on the extreme side- a teenaged boys vision. Given the 30 yrs plus marketplace they’re heading for, a few discreet nips and tucks would be more appropriate than what we have here - for European tastes anyway.

    Looks like it’s had a midlife crisis.

    Was it the same stylist that turned the Qvale Mangusta into the MG SV?

    They Look like aftermarket boy race add ons not manufacturer fitted equipment.

    I live in Chengdu - have long waited the opportunity to buy and ride a nice bike to work - however office is located in the very center of the city. It’s unfortunate to think that I have to wait until our office is out of the CBD to ride a bike around, but understand the concerns.

    It’s odd in that, Hong Kong allows motorbikes everywhere - how can they pull it off and the mainland has trouble?

    As far as Rover is concerned, this is the best thing the design team have done in years. I am lead to believe that it is the same design team from Longbridge. It is fresh look. Look at any car on the road and you can see a similarity. Don’t Fords, Jags, Volvos and Astons share the same designs. Audi’s, VW the new Seat releaded in 09. They are all copoed in some way. I believe people still see a Rover and are put off by the name. I know we won’t see a Roewe in the UK but bring on the MG brand. By the way if you sift through old PRE-Chineese pictures of Rover MGs you can see this car was on the drawing board for some time, or something that resembles it. Long Live MG.
