  1. I wonder why they sold it to the Americans as an Austin Marina, how strange, in the UK the last of the Marina saga was named Morris Ital, hmmmm, something to add to my grey cells....☺️
  2. All to do with the UK and Rover, then the Chinese thought, "Wow, I have a great idea to sell the stuff nobody will buy, we can call them "Brit MG"............????
  3. BMW bought the Rover Group, probably because of the Mini thing. Being a Brit has nothing to do with anything, I would defend you if I thought you were right. ????
  4. I had an 1964 MGB roadster, good fun back then, loved the breeze going through my hair, won't do that now though...????
  5. MG was sold to the Chinese by BMW, Germany... Seems a couple of you are walking in the dark....????
  6. You rascal, not swatted up eh.... The Germans owned Rover, which included the MG thing. The Germans sold the MG badge on to the Chinese....☺️
  7. It's "Morris Marina", which became the Morris Ital, all the info is here....chum......????
  8. Oh well, you do not understand my point, never mind.... "Passion Drives Since 1924"......???? https://www.mgcars.com/en/Home https://www.mgcars.com/en/Home
  9. What has Chinese parts possibly being in anything got to do with a 100% Chinese item or the MG subject...Gawd 'elp us. But, tell me what British part is in the Chinese MG pickup....?
  10. They most certainly wouldn't buy a Chinese ride knowing it has a famous "bought" name, especially a Maxus T70 hiding underneath the badges. Funnily enough, I was behind one this morning, I had a closer look at the Union Jack with Brit written on it on the tailgate, it also said "Dynamic"........???? How embarrassing....????
  11. I get the feeling you don't like British stuff from any direction, l assume you are not British....????
  12. "I didn't know a Trans Am was a Firebird", where did you get that from, I owned one for 23 years...????...? So no comment on the USA buying near 300,000 MGBs then, and how many Chevy Impalas were exported to the UK, or what Chevy engines you were referring too...Oh well, never mind..
  13. Weeeeeeell, I am not going to use your word "stupid", but it seems you cannot see my point, a 100% Chinese non-performance upgraded Maxus T70 truck is adorned with the MG performance logos and Union Jack with "Brit" on it, for folk to think it is a hopped up British MG truck.........????
