What happened to MG Motors?

BMW sold the business in 2000 and the MG marque passed to the MG Rover Group based in Longbridge, Birmingham. The practice of selling unique MG sports cars alongside badge-engineered models (by now Rovers) continued. The Group went into receivership in 2005 and car production was suspended on 7 April 2005 .

SAIC motors , who own MG, make MG cars out of China and Thailand. Until its collapse in 2005, MG Rover Group had been manufacturing the cars.
