Marks DTM

Mark, you said you weren't too keen on the interior of the Rover 75.


How about the new MG7?


















I just know you'll love it ;D


I'm waiting for the MG7Z myself ::)

Thats awful......the dials look like they were drawn on graph papaer........that realy is a pipe smoking old mans car.

I always laugh at how they pull the front seats forward when displaying these cars to give the impression of rear leg room.

am i missing something?

It just looks like a Rover 75 inside! - It looks like the LWB 'limousine' version, that Rover did sometime ago.

Wish they would stop flogging a dead horse and bring back the Omega!

<Shudder>

The put "retro style" dials on the dash and then a black plastic panel with a LCD display in the middle for the heater. Looks like it's been cobbled together from parts they had lying around, which is probably not far from the truth.

I'm sure the 'designer' thought it was a good idea.  Maybe the market they are no aiming at like the weird look? Nah, maybe not ;D.  I couldn't live with it...

As to legroom, it does look as if they have improved it - look at the seat position in relation to B posts, they don't look too far forward to me?

Its just the LWB 75..... look at the difference in door sizes front to rear.

Its a trick picture.....seat bases forward, tilt the top of the seats back.....

Rear room was always a problem on the 75....and unless they have radicaly changed the shape they cant improve it.

Of course with it now being chinese it will only cost 9.99!

Agreed, though it wasn't really designed to be large exec, more a Vectra sized car. BMW positioned/marketed it in the wrong sector (as they did with most of the Rovers).
