Owner review: Nurse Lowe and her MG HS midsize SUV

Australians gravitated to brands they trust amid public lockdowns and international travel restrictions during the coronavirus pandemic and delivered vehicles to people like Brisbane based nurse Barbara Lowe who snapped up her Diamond Red metallic MG HS at that time.

Barbara joined the MG family in 2020, and said she had tried out a variety of models before eventually being won over by the HS.

“I got my MG in the height of COVID-19. I was looking at a variety of different brands, but it was the MG that caught my eye, and from the moment we first drove the HS we absolutely loved it.”

“The HS just had so many bells and whistles that the other cars didn’t have standard, so it was more bang for your buck. The seven years warranty was also a good sales pitch.”

When on the hunt for a new car, Barbara knew she wanted it to be a good size and well equipped to assist her in her day-to-day life as a nurse but also a great car for road-tripping and weekend escapes too.

“Since I am a nurse, my mother always said that I needed a reliable car. The MG HS was brand new and also packed a ton of safety features, so it ticked all my boxes,” she said.

“I travel on the open highway to work each day, and it is always very smooth and very easy to drive.”

Barbara and her partner enjoy being able to hit the road and escape the hustle and bustle of city life when possible. The HS has proved to be more than a competent companion along the open Queensland country roads and a reliable workhorse enroute to the Hospital.

“My partner and I have been on several road trips with the car. Firstly we did Central Queensland, up to Emerald and Sapphire and worked our way back through Dalby,” she said.

“The navigation for the trip was excellent. Another time I travelled from North Brisbane to the Gold Coast and back, and then the next day drove to Byron Bay on the same tank of petrol. I was absolutely amazed at how efficient the car is.”

This fuel efficiency that the MG HS packs is one of the most outstanding aspects to the car for Barbara, alongside many other features.

“My favourite feature of the MG HS is number one that it is very fuel efficient. It also has excellent handling and overall feels exceptionally smooth on the roads. The tyre pressure gauge is also something I didn’t have on my previous car which has really come in handy.”

“I was surprised at how comfortable the car is, and the leather like seats make it look very smart. There are a few things I miss from my old car but now I can use Siri hands free when driving.”

“The reverse driving camera comes into use a lot as well and is especially helpful in the tight parking spaces of the hospital in which I work. The Apple CarPlay is great too, it’s fantastic to have an extension of my phone and all its apps.”

Barbara said without a doubt she would recommend an MG to her friends and family and would certainly purchase another in the future if she ever felt the need to add another vehicle into her family.

“I would certainly purchase another MG again, and I highly recommend the HS. I have had to use another MG HS before, and while it didn’t have all the features of mine, it was still great, and the fuel efficiency was just as top notch.”

“I am so happy with my HS, I know it doesn’t have the go of some other cars. However, I continue to be pleasantly surprised with just how good it is, plus I absolutely love the colour (Diamond Red Metallic).”
