No daz,it does stand for multi-valve 6 cylinder,according to total vauxhall,because someone wrote in and asked the same question. Thumbs Up!

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

Actually You will, leather sports recaros was a no cost option on the Elites, seen a couple arround, still prefere my MV6's though. Thumbs Up!

Quite right Opel did release the MV6 2-3 years before vauxhall coined the name,and it was motorsport vairiant 6 cylinder as used in german and italian race series
