Anyone here drive one of the new MG HS cars? Looking at getting one but need to know what it’s like for boot space, specifically would it fit a folded down wheelchair plus a buggy etc?

I didn't have a HS but I bought a brand new MG a couple of years ago. I didn't even keep it a year.

I hadn't had it very long when the servo on the brakes went, got that repaired, then the clutch went. I had to wait ages to get it repaired as they couldn't get the parts easily.

I wouldn't recommend an MG at all.

Oh dear, was hoping somebody wouldn’t say that . They look like lovely cars as well

There are some YouTube video road tests that should give you a better idea, friend has one and the boot isn't vast.

Only real way is to take what you want to carry to a garage and physically try it(if allowed)

You can't just go by the cubic feet because sometimes they're awkwardly shaped.

I think there are better options for you for the money

Good luck

The issue is we can’t due to covid and have to wait until April 12th at the earliest. Been watching plenty of YouTube videos but they can’t always give you a good idea of boot dimensions.

We’ve got a salesman at the dealership emailing us tomorrow with a video walk around and he’s also agreed to measure the floor of the boot but we’d like peoples real world experiences as well

They do look great, just not up to the job.

And tbh the specs on this for the price are really good compared to the price you’d pay for similar specs on others, that’s why we are looking at the MG HS

If it's got roof bars fitted they are for decoration only!! You couldn't make it up.

Id look at other brands to tell you the truth. The SGE LFV gm motor is the same as in the unreliable vauxhall adam we see so so many come through with this terrible engine.
