Reliability
3.5
It’s early days for the resurrected MG brand so it’s hard to make a judgement on reliability. However, the company returned to our Driver Power satisfaction survey with an impressive third place in the 2014 manufacturer ranking.
Of concern will be the three-star Euro NCAP crash test rating, which is unusual in an age when most new models achieve five stars. The fact that the MG3 comes with six airbags, stability control and tyre pressure monitoring does little to offset concern about the car’s crash safety failings. The adult crash protection score was 20 points behind the Skoda Citigo’s, for example.
