MG ROVER

No comments from the list that MG Rover has gone into liquidation. I make no comments except to say I do not trust Politicians, BMW management, John Towers team or the Press all to blame all ass***es. The blackest day for the British car industry for a long time.

MG Rover appears to be in adminstration rather than liquidation, so this drama has a few more acts to go. The MG bit appears to be profitable. There may not be many bankruptcy lawyers in the list, so few feel qualified to comment.

Andre, Have to disagree with you there........ I own an MG-F and its a dammed good motor car. Mind you if you're referring to things such as Metross, Montego's etc then I'd probably agree. But then there is also a school of thought among MG circles that any MG not built at the Oxford Works is not worth worrying about either.......
