MG

The MG Car Company Limited was a British sports car manufacturer begun in the 1920s as a sales promotion sideline within W R Morris's Oxford city retail sales and service business by the business's manager, Cecil Kimber. Best known for its two-seat open sports cars, MG also produced saloons and coupés. Kimber was an employee of William Morris; MG are the initials for Morris Garages. (there exist some doubts as to this.)
The MG business was Morris's personal property until 1 July 1935[3] when he sold MG to his holding company, Morris Motors Limited, restructuring his holdings before issuing (preference) shares in Morris Motors to the public in 1936. MG underwent many changes in ownership starting with Morris merging with Austin in The British Motor Corporation Limited in 1952. MG became the MG Division of BMC in 1967 and so a component of the 1968 merger that created British Leyland Motor Corporation. By the start of 2000 MG was part of the MG Rover Group which entered receivership in 2005 and the assets were purchased by its new Chinese owner Nanjing Automobile Group (which merged into SAIC in 2007) for £53 million, with production starting again in 2007 in China, and limited production in the UK as MG Motor. The first all-new model from MG in the UK for 16 years, the MG6, was officially launched on 26 June 2011.

MG MGB

The MGB is a two-door sports car manufactured and marketed by MG Cars and its successors as a four-cylinder, soft-top roadster (1962-1980) — along with variants including the MGB GT three-door 2+2 coupé (1965-1974), the six-cylinder roadster and coupé MGC (1967-1969), and the eight-cylinder 2+2 coupé, the MGB GT V8 (1973-1976).
Replacing the MGA in 1962, production of the MGB and its variants continued by the British Motor Corporation and its successors, British Motor Holdings and British Leyland Motor Corporation until 1980 — achieving sales for the MGB, MGC and MGB GT V8 of 523,836 cars. The MGB bodyshell was reprised in modified form with a limited run of 2,000 MG RV8 roadsters (1993-1995).
