I hate to agree with you Daz, but..............so did I.
Every V6 is a multi-valve V6, not just the MV6.

Just sounds cool i guess. Lower & firmer than other Migs so slightly better handling but no faster out of the box.
   Who said low spec? Digi climate as standard. Ok no satnav on mini facelifts but i don't use it myself, i can read a map. My MV6 has been fitted with cruise control, bose, full recaro leather (won't see that on an Elite). I'm still waiting for a privacy rear blind & shelf in black & the heated recaros only go up & down........but i'd leave you in my dust on the twisties....
   & i have the best wheels a Mig can ever have, along with a spare set! Cool
