M2 going stealth mode: wearing the Mineral Grey dress

Earlier this week the new owner of my VO 1M (Lorenzo) had a brief encounter with an MG M2 M-DCT (HEA dealer demo) somewhere in Flanders (Belgium) and quickly snapped some pictures, his way.

The car ain't parked - it's waiting.

If you want to be even more torn: earlier this month Lorenzo also shot the LBB M2:

The car just had gotten a Gyeon Quartz coating.

The MG looks fantastic.
I selected the LBB but has always been keen on the MG.
Super nice pictures of the MG and LBB.

That is not Mineral Grey though, that is Edited Grey.
If it looked even close to that in person it would be a great color.

Call it whatever you want ('Lorenzo MG', 'Stealth MG', etc.), it nicely shows the design lines. Mi piace molto.

The photographer did a great job but he also lucked out with where the car was parked. The semi-transparent roof with dark shadows from the roof structure gives an amazing effect. Combined with the quartz coating makes these the best MG pictures yet. Has me wishing I mine was MG instead of AW.
