Dealers join the queue for MG franchise
AROUND 80 dealers have expressed interest in running franchises for the reborn MG brand in Britain, said a Nanjing spokesman, this morning.
Earlier this year, it was thought a 50-strong network would be created but interest has been stronger than anticipated after two models were sent down the unfinished production lines in Longbridge two months ago.
The new UK built two-seaters will begin pilot assembly in May with production starting in the autumn for delivery to dealers by the end of the year.
Longbridge will supply two-seaters based on the MG-TF to markets taking right hand drive models.
