Our MG-XR it's sooooo nice! I keep stalling it though as the bite is much higher and very hard for me to find at the mo so at lights i am petrified! Apart from that it is really fab, has everything we wanted and more, got electric sunroof which we didn't realise, actually elctric everything! it fits at least 12ish bags of shopping in easily as df had to go shopping yesterday lol and has split seats which are a god send for us..
Not sure if it is supposed to have fog lights though as we can only find rear, tbh never used them on the old car so not fussed but suprised as it is a sporty car..
Anyway ramble over, quite a novelty to us as the last car was very basic so all very excited!!

    Happy Motoring!! Hope you enjoy it - it sounds as though you will... Just remember, because it can fit 12 bags of shopping in the boot, that doesn't mean you have to fit that many in!

    You'll soon get used to the biting point on the clutch, before too much longer it will be second nature.

    Have fun.

I got all the way to work this morning and back without stalling it so very pleased with myself!
