As I wrote this morning about a failed company reaching its zenith sometime in the past I was unaware that the same story was playing out at that very moment.

Rover MG is closing in Britain. They borrowed to make it through the past week but it looks today like the jig is up.

This is the last British car manufacturer owned by the British.

It is reported that workers are taking their tools home today, a "sure sign of a factory dieing."

This is really a shame. My brother and I owned about five British sports cars when we were young, enjoyed all of them. Jaguar, Triumph, MG and I had friends with British sports cars too.
