The MGF was successfull, in the sense it made a profit. There were talks of selling MG seperately to to Rover, with restored production to MGF. This I
somehow doubt will happen. Few manufactures - even on Locost scale - put all their eggs in one basket.
There are fairly detained plans floating on the net - that the concept of the GB200 at Genieva bout 10 years ago was looking close to a finish. Only
as late as Portsmouth Millenium Tower - renamed to Spinniker Tower after planning and funding crisi.
Appearntly, Shanghi Automotive were planning on keeping the designs but moving production. They currently make VW Polos and Golfs for the Chinese
market, and that contract ends 2007. THe have the build facilities but nothing to build.
Whatever happens. Its life. Everything is born, and everything dies. That is our only certainly.
What our ebay - here Rover comes!
