Ford owns Land Rover, not to be confused with MG/Rover which was bought by a
group of investers (Phoenix Consortiam) for 5 or 10 pounds a few years ago. If
you search MGR or MG Rover in BBC news you can get a pretty good history of the
current situation.

It really sounds to me like some rotten management (nothing we're not already
used to see connected to the letters MG).
I thought FoMoCo owned these guys? With the wild popularity of the "new"
Mustang, why are they not getting MG Rover to cash in on the retromobile
movement and re-release the MGB, or Midget to the U.S. market?
