MG Motor UK have enjoyed a five per cent increase in year-to-date sales figures according to the latest data from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, bucking the trend in a UK new car market which experienced a slight downturn opening months of 2017.

MG attribute their success to the introduction of new MG3 and MG GS models, as well as the continued expansion of its dealer network.  Over 77 dealers now comprise the MG brand network, which is now one of the fastest growing in the UK.  MG plans for its dealer network to grow to around 90 dealers by the end of the year.
Matthew Cheyne, Head of Sales and Marketing at MG Motor UK, said: “Thanks to the commitment and passion of our dealers, we continue to buck the trend on new car registrations. Well-equipped, well-designed and well-priced, our models are proving an attractive proposition for dealers and customers alike.  We increased our figures by almost 33% from 2015 to 2016 and are already tracking 5.12% up again this year.”
