Mr. CCT (Ash) thinking of buying an MG3

The MG3 is cheap, cheerful and reasonably powerful for its size, it also has the all important 5-Star CNCAP result as well.

Not long to wait until we can drive the UK spec MG3 - fingers crossed

I was with him until I read this bit:

So do I buy an MSG Flea, add on some suitably sized wheels and a large exhaust to live the boy racer dream?

Was that tounge-in-cheek, I wonder? If not, I'm less interested in his opinion than before...
