Britain first for new TF

24th August 2006

MG is coming home before it takes on the world! In Issue 923, we brought you the first pictures of the Chinese-built Rover 75 - and now we can reveal that the British-built TF roadster will go on sale in the UK ahead of any other country.

Assembled at the Nanjing Automotive-owned plant at Longbridge, the TF will arrive at dealers here next summer before being offered in other markets later in 2007. A hard-top coupé version made in the US will join the line-up in 2008, along with three Chinese-built saloons based on the ZR and ZT platforms.
