Although MG is Chinese-owned, the five-door MG6 GT was designed and engineered in the UK.

Yes, because the Chinese couldn't design a car if their life depended on it - have you seen the abominations to automotive engineering they produce over there? They wanted to produce a car, they bought the rights to the MG brand name and are producing something under that name. I suppose things were like that when the last idiots were in there 'running' the company and lining their own pockets.
