Hi Trevor,
I believe the MG3 will be a sales success for MG Motor as the Chinese company is called. I would have thought "MG Motors" would have sounded better but that's the name SAIC has given the revitalised MG name.
Read about the MG3 here: http://www.aronline.co.uk/blogs/cars/mg-cars/mg3
The designers have kept things simple, MacPherson struts up front and a torsion beam rear axle, a similar arrangement to the Rover 25. and the original Golf. Evidently the engine is new. The 1.5 litre "N" series and is not a derivative of the "K" series, the new engine has a chain driven camshaft.
Will a diesel version of offered? Perhaps not now that diesel engines are becoming discredited.
The MG6 large saloon was a sales disaster but all that will change with the MG3 and the newly introduced MG-GS crossover SUV.
