Theres been this connection for ages, it was a chinese company that built the City Rover (shows doesnt it)
There has been talk about the Chinese doing a deal with Rover for the last 6-8months!
MG Rover will probably be split up again With the Demise of MG and Rovers being produced in China.. WHICH should have been done along time ago imho!!

According to the news they will continue building current Rover models in China... So how can you Say Rover is Over?? you cant if they are still being built
And sorry yes the City Rover was built by an Indian company... Still a shit car and it shows!!
it's quite easy to bring back a Brand, Rover done it with MG

The chinese company only want to make the Rover 75 if they can come to an agreement with parts companies.

CityRover built by Tata in India. Shared with Tata Indica, that got me and my mate from Delhi - Agra - Jaipur and back again at full speed for 3 continuous days, got some real fucking punishment and stood up to it.

Rover in the UK is over. The chinese waited for it to go under so that when they buy it they dont get any of the debts like pensions and redundency for the workers (so I've heard)
