    Hey, the story has changed!!

    "While Trade Secretary Patricia Hewitt said on Thursday night that the firm had called in the administrators, MG Rover quickly denied this was the case.

    The car maker said it had merely asked accountants to advise on its position."

    so lets replace 'administration' with 'bankrupt' !!

    you cannot put a spoiler on a rover 214, & call it an MG. the writing has been on the wall for years !

    Sad day.

    It's a tragedy for the West Midlands if it's true. I hope this isn't the end for the Brummie workers. Not to mention the end of volume manufacturing.
