Will give you that!

260 - 280 bhp when the 3.0 omega gets 210ish

Not a lot extra for your extra 1.7 litres....

MGZT 2.5V6 is still faster to 60 than 3.0 MV6, although MV6 has a higher top speed (pretty academic in this country)

In which case the gearing is different and hence the faster acceleration.

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 ;D

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. ;)
