The British Morris Garages brand, a spin-off of
Rover, is back in a new guise under Chinese ownership. The new-for-2011 MG 550
1.8T compact sedan is designed by MG's British team and comes with a
newly-developed 1.8-litre light-pressure turbo 4-cylinder engine and a 5-speed
automatic, on a front-wheel-drive platform vaguely derived from the old Rover
75, with independent suspension and disc brakes on all four wheels.
The base
model gets 16-inch alloys wheels, four-wheel ventilated disc brakes, cruise control,
stability control, two front airbags, ABS with EBD, fabric seats, one-press
engine start with the key still requiring insertion, steering-mounted radio
controls, power windows and mirrors, automatic climate control a/c, faux wood
trim, CD/MP3 stereo with 8 speakers, keyless entry, illuminated sunshade
mirrors, digital gauges and fog lights. The top “Deluxe” model gets 17-inch
alloys, side-curtain airbags, dual-zone a/c, leather upholstery, tinted
windows, electric driver’s seat, parking sensors, sunroof and a basic GPS
system. There are many more options available, such as Bluetooth, rear camera
and cooler box, but the dealer will not offer those for now.
