  1. Is that what MG sales told you....? I recall looking into the Chinese brand Chery, they have a ride identical to the ZS 1500cc, but has a 1500cc with turbo that gives 145hp (I think), and compared it to the non-turbo 1500cc ZS, which develops 112hp... ????
  2. We are talking laptop, I fink......????
  3. Hmmmm, could be affecting his gray cells too....????
  4. My American car is still on the road at 46 years old, most of my chums have even older American cars still on the road....???? I wonder how long your Chinese offering will last...????
  5. I spray a little hand alcohol on a bit of cloth and wipe it over, do not spray the keyboard...It cleans and kills off any germs...
  6. Nothing, they had cleaned the throttle body as idle rpm kept sticking a tad high..But, to take off and clean the TB and do the diag cost 500bht..????
  7. So it was the price, as their rides have not really been around that long, I cannot see how you came to the conclusion the ZS being a good vehicle, after all, I keep being told here it is DESIGNED in the UK, the UK MG designs you slag off, AND using Chinese production and materials......????
  8. In S mode it hangs on to the peak torque. Your Suzuki dealer has a diagnostic computer setup, they can alter how the engine and box works via a keyboard, had mine done once. It also gives a readout on pass & fail items. Well worth them connecting your ride to check it out..
  9. Sorry if his non-explanation is good enough for you, but I would like to know the reason for his quotes. Now you sit back and learn something, with a bit of luck....????
  10. The funny thing is, you continually slag off the British MG, yet you bought an MG made by the Chinese, now that is very funny. My conclusion is you wanted a new cheap ride, be honest now..????
  11. Not sure how the S mode works, it could keep it in the lower gear range longer, and/or use the tech to increase RPM's. If you put your foot to the floor it will really take off, use a lower range and raise the RPM to the limit...
  12. Quadriderm cream......????
  13. You don't know what I know, so please don't guess. ???? And why shouldn't your Chinese ride take you here there and everywhere, I have never said it won't, my involvement in this thread is totally a cheap Chinese ride using a British performance brand name and history to sell it, yes "since 1924"......????
  14. Another Morris vs MG comparison, Morris Oxford and MG Magnette, 61hp vs 68hp, virtually the same car, though the MG had a very nice interior and a bit more go....
  15. BMC/BL produced 523,000 MGB and variants in its 18 years production run, the vast majority going to the USA...... 1.8xS4/3.0xS6/3.5V8 engines..
  16. Yes, MG was the performance side of Morris, strange the Chinese didn't use the Morris name for their non-performance rides and pickup ...???? Below is a Morris 1100 and an MG 1100, 50hp vs 55hp....
  17. Everything probably has a Chinese part, made with cheap labour in China for the west. But the thread is about 100% Chinese stuff, cheap MG cars with a bought British brand name to give folk the feel good factor........???? Would folk buy them if they were called "Chow Ming Autos", doubt it, mind you, CMA sounds BMW-ish.......????........????
