Description

This 2017 MG MG3 1.5 VTi-TECH 3Style+ is an engaging and easy-to-drive hatchback that suits city commutes and everyday errands. The lively 1.5-litre petrol engine delivers brisk responses around town while the manual gearbox keeps the drive involving. It feels nimble in traffic and confident on longer A-road runs, making it a versatile choice for new drivers or those seeking economical motoring.

Practicality is a strong suit: the cabin is well laid out, seating accommodates five and the boot expands for larger loads. With Euro 6 emissions and low running costs, this MG3 is a sensible, well-maintained example that’s ready to use with a fresh MOT and service included.
