So Motorpoint have already got a batch of 63-plate MG6 GT & Magnette models, about 40-odd I think. At least one MG3 is going out to each dealer this month too (35-40 cars?), plus the press cars and any others that Longbridge register for testing/loans, plus any actual sales...
I think this month's MG registrations will be into triple figures. And I think that's deliberate. Remember the slightly hysterical-sounding press release talking about sales increases year-on-year of hundreds of percent etc? I bet October will see an MG UK press release (probably already written) lauding the spectacular sales increase of 600% in the MG3 launch month, the best sales month since 2010 etc etc
But what have they just done to the MG6 residuals? And what will the sales figures look like - for both cars - in October? Of course October allegedly sees the TV ad campaign, but according to another, less MG-friendly, website, there might already be supply issues with the MG3 before it's even got going.
