Sketches
All in the eyes
At a quick glance, the MG’s design appears to riff on plenty of other cars – we spy Bentley Conti GT, Jaguar F-type and XJ, even humble Mazdas, but no classic MGB. No matter, the curvy two-door coupé lines would certainly get grandma spinning on her heels. We love neat details that include butterfly doors, the starlight matrix front grille, and a windscreen and panoramic roof that flow into one long piece of gorgeous glazing. Look closer and there is a cheeky little nod to the MGB in the headlights – said to be inspired by the London Eye. The frowny Matrix LED clusters actually incorporate covers that pop open to reveal a cuter rounded lamp more in keeping with the classic MGB. Nice touch.
