MG3 WRC may be???

I've come over all funny.

If it happens, how long will it take for a model to be made   

Hubba Hubba!

That's not something I'd have expected to see.   

Now I may have the disappointment that it will never materialise!!  

On the other hand, as and when a 1/43 scale model appears of the road car, I know what I'll do with it!   

Thanks for posting. I'm having difficulty typing as i've got EVERYTHING crossed, hoping it will happen! Please SAIC!   

I saw an MG3 on the road for the first time yesterday, having had a long drawl over one in the showroom at Christmas. Cheeky, likeable shape and style. The rally version looks to be fun, though I can't imagine there will be much suspension travel!   

Thanks for posting, Colin. Made my day!!

Cheers, Steve

Steve, there is an actual model of the MG3 been made in 1/18 though. And yes i got one    Also got an MG6 in 1/16. Rather big but gorgeous to say the least      

Yes Chris, you're spot on there.... but I don't do bigguns!    As and when there's a 1/43 scale model, I'm there.

Thinking about it, I do already have a 1/43 scale MG 3 but it's the SW model which looks identical to the 'Streetwise' model.   

I've kept a look out for a 1/43 scale MG6 but there are only the larger ones you've got, but again, would look out of place amongst the tiddlers!   

I now have a 1/43 scale Cityrover, which started off life as a Tata Indica.   

Cheers, Steve

Aye there the ones i got. MG3 in met blue though and the 6 in the dark silver.

Good choices there, Chris.

I think the full size MG3 suits the light blue metallic very well and I think 'steel grey' or whatever the dark silver is called makes a good choice on any car. My first Rover, a VERY early 214 Si, was Steel Grey with the dark, solid grey 'duotone' underneath. Lovely!  

Back to the current cars, I rather like the metallic orange colour on the MG6 as per Mark's picture. Suits the car well, I think.   

Hope the team behind this idea are based in the "right" bit of the Ukraine otherwise could be a problem!! Having said that all the MG parent company need to do is provide the funding a la BTCC set up. Nice to see someone out Prodriving Prodrive and getting in early...
