Doesn't help economy or sales in Germany......which is a very big market....just another example of Rover missing the target......again.... Plus I suspect its lighter....

Gearing is most definately different. The MG revs at about 3300 at 70mph whereas I think my omega revs at 2800-2900. MG ia actually a bit of a pain to get away in. First gear, boot to the floor and your only doing about 12mph before youve red lined it Grin

But when all is said and done, I dont think either omega or MG would win any prizes against their contemporaries. Neither is a great favorite with many people. Its just a case, with me anyway, of something a bit different. The more people dislike MG, or indeed omega, the more I like them. Wink
