My daughter was a wedding coordinator in Cyprus and had one of these which had done 250k kilometres. Engine superb but suspension so crashy. Great little cars imo
I've heard that Android Auto isn't wireless on this car. Might sound trivial to most but I'm now used to never needing to take my phone out of my pocket when I'm in the car and its almost a deal breaker for me.
Yes you’re right there seems to have been some disagreement between providers, I’ve seen a manufacturers without wireless, thank you Ian - best bet try it in a dealership, on our next Kia we’ll try it too
I was looking at the base spec of these as my first car and was a bit worried the base spec would look a bit pathetic. Guess i was wrong, might reconsider.
Yes that's the brand new gt line s top specification. It's strange that the false floor is not on the base model but the technology is very impressive. 👍
The MG3 Hybrid SE is now brand new on Autotrader for £17449. Twice as quick, bigger, similar economy. Automatic and better spec.The petrol version will be cheaper still.
Maybe,but "What Car" rated " MG",as the most unreliable brand, based on reader survey, , with only 33% of faults been paid for under warranty,and often involving over a week off the road.
Hi Ben, great review of an amazing small car package. Good Value, quality and warranty. Had a Picanto a few times as a holiday hire car and loved driving them, outstanding economy.
I was a Picanto owner 2018 version and 2020 facelift loved it
They’re immense little cars, so much fun and I know a shedload of journalist who love them just as much, thank you Wayne
I love your review style. Brilliant 😆
Thank you for the kind words @abelbalbo5134

Wow that’s some distance for a 3 cylinder, that’s amazing, yes they are thank you Volt
Good review. Silverdale, beautiful place to live
Thank you Michael, great driving roads too.
I enjoyed watching the video review, my favorite Trim Is the GT Line 😊
Thank you Jamie great to hear you enjoyed it.
Picanto Turbo Gt Line...
LOVE!
Awesome little cars Frances
Neat little car. Great in depth review.
Thank you very much and yes what a sound with added fun 🤩
Does it have heating? Or just air conditioning to cool?
It has hot and cold air con if memory serves, thank you.
The center arm rest slids backwards and forwards it may have been in the extended position
Ah thank you Cherry - I think we had it fully back
It's a cracking little car -- and likely to be very reliable.
It really is Ambien, looks the part and that sound, just awesome.
Picanto is classic
It is 😀

I was surprised as you could tell, smart, pretty good spec and quick enough and an awesome sound - perfect first car Tom
The gt line s has a false floor and a usb c in the rear. Great video and a great car.
Oh, cool that’s good to hear seems strange not to add the floor as standard - is that in this latest one Mark? Thank you
Yes that's the brand new gt line s top specification. It's strange that the false floor is not on the base model but the technology is very impressive. 👍
@markrhodes3983 thank you for clarifying.

We’ve found it for £18,495 - mind you that’s still 2k more entirely depends on your budget, both impressive cars.

I thought a week was normal I’ve heard of manufacturers 2 months and over

Prefer a Suzuki swift
Depends on your budget, this starts considerably cheaper than Swift.
