    Spotted a grey MG6 on the A11 today heading northbound and then turning in towards Thetford. It had www.mg.co.uk logo on the rear hatch. Looked nice..I wonder whose it was?

    I am keeping alert but whenever I see an MG6 it is either a large dark grey Honda (Accord?) or a large white Vauxhall (Insignia?)

    Here's one in Irn-Bru orange spotted in Glasgow city centre last week - it's an AVIS rental but I was over the moon when I saw it. One of the keys to brand awareness is seeing more of them on the road.

    If orange ones are fastest, you've done well to catch one at rest. Wink

    I agree about "getting them out there" - the 500 AVIS cars are a bit of a drop in the ocean compared to the total AVIS fleet. I wonder what customer feedback has been like? Imagine a foreign (I first put American, but he'd have an auto) businessman getting off a plane and being given an MG to drive. He'll not have heard of Vauxhall either. I wonder what feedback has been like? AVIS and MG will have reached a keen deal, I wonder when/if AVIS will take more? If it is when the diesel comes out, I would expect some of the petrols to have gone back off lease already having reached 13,500 miles.

    At Heathrow the cars were white, black, silver and grey - though there may have been a couple of red ones.
