Episode 83: The Turner Twins’ MG Cyberster adventure and behind the scenes at Waylands MG
First, we go behind the scenes at Newbury-based Waylands MG for a behind-the-scenes look at one of MG Motor UK’s newest dealerships with Simon Bishop. Hear all about the amazing deals, insights into who is buying MGs at the moment and the latest on new models this year.
We then meet British adventurers, Ross and Hugo Turner, at the home of the MG Car Club at Abingdon as they embark upon a unique seven-month journey from London to Shanghai, that will see them reinvent the Silk Road for the 21st century by travelling 10,000 miles across continents in an MG Cyberster EV sports car.
The Devon-born twins, whose expeditions include rowing across the Atlantic Ocean and traversing Greenland’s Ice Cap, are undertaking the mammoth range anxiety-inducing road trip in MG’s newly unveiled all-electric MG Cyberster, a sports car that accelerates to 0-60mph in about 3 seconds.
Crossing the finish line in Shanghai in 2024 will mean more than the ultimate test drive of the world’s first EV roadster, it will also mark the Centenary year for the brand that originally began trading in Oxford as Morris Garages; now known around the world as MG.
