Greenbacks?

Phone number and website are in Belarus, but the Vilnius address is not... and you can't buy a new MG in Lithuania...

What....the UK is getting those models too? Really?

no, not all models are sold in all countries.

IIRC the Chiles, Brazils etc are getting the rebadged Roewes and the Chinese MG6.

China gets everything, but the Roewes are badged as Roewes.

I think the (bubble) MG3SW has just gone out of production (though it still features on the website) and was only ever sold (quite successfully) in China! Similarly, I doubt anywhere outside China is getting the current MG7.

The website doesn't really go into detail about this.

What's proposed to come here as things stand IIRC is MG6 fastback and saloon, MG3, MG5, small SUV (new MG3SW) and new sportscar. As the MG3 will be assembled at Longbridge like the MG6, we have not yet heard of any car where it is proposed to import it in finished form from China.

Also, although Poland has bought a massive 4 Chinese-made cars and they are on sale in Belarus, we know the plan for (some of?) the Continent (Poland is in the EU) is to assemble LHD cars at Longbridge and send them from here...
