ABINGDON’S MG Car Club is thrilled to announce that MG Motor UK has chosen MGLive!, the marque’s largest International event, to exclusively pre-launch the highly anticipated MG6 saloon car.

Speculation has been rife amongst MG Owners about the whereabouts of the pre-launch preview, and the MG Car Club can now confirm the MG6 will be proudly showcased at MGLive! which takes place at Silverstone on June 4th, 5th, 6th.

Huge excitement surrounds the MG6 – the first new MG since 2001. With thousands of enthusiasts expected to descend on Silverstone in June, the award-winning MGLive! event will provide a perfect portal for an official preview.

MG Motor UK will have a high-profile, three day presence at the event in a prominent central location.

MGLive! has been staged consecutively at the iconic Northamptonshire circuit since 1950 – and is set to celebrate 60 glorious years in 2010.

The MG Car Club, which has raced on Silverstone’s International circuit since the early nineties, will now make the exciting transition to the full 3.2 mile Grand Prix track. The switch will allow MGCC competitors to experience the thrill of Stowe and Abbey – famous corners which will now roar to the sound of MGs from across nine decades.

Guy Jones, Sales and Marketing Director for MG Motor UK said “We strongly believe that the loyal fans of the MG brand should have the first opportunity to see the new MG6 and what better opportunity than at the world famous Silverstone race circuit at the MG Live! event in June.  This is already a great event and a testimony to the strength of the MG brand, so it is fitting that we take the all new MG6 there as part of the celebrations surrounding the MG brand.  The MG6 will be the centre piece of the MG Motor stand at the heart of the action for the weekend at Silverstone.”

MG Car Club Chairman John Day said: “We are ecstatic that MG Motor UK have chosen MGLive! to officially preview the MG6.  I know that our members will be excited by this announcement and the presence of the manufacturer at MGLive! continues the exceptional relationship between the MG Car Club and MG Motor UK.”
