Hendy Group, which took on the MG franchise for Exeter in the spring, has engaged with local enthusiasts from the MG Owners Club.

Staff from the Marsh Barton Road dealership took MG6 and MG3 models along to the June meeting of the Exeter MGOC, where members showed a lot of interest in the new cars.

Hendy is having to operate the MG business from temporary buildings at the Marsh Barton Road premises as the showroom planned to host it was badly damaged by a fire in May and is being refurbished prior to opening later this year.
