As you may have heard, BMW has decided to sell the Rover group which includes the MG and Mini marques, but has sold Land Rover to Ford and is retaining rights to the new Mini. Now that the dust has settled, a new group has taken control of what's left of Rover. Below is the press release. Will we ever see the Octagon return to North American shores? Let the speculation commence! The most interesting part of all of this is that the Alchemy Group is naming the new company "The MG Car Company"!!! Update: It seems the Alchemy deal has fallen through at the last minute, mainly due to concerns that a lot of jobs would be lost at the Rover plants. Rover has now been taken over by the Pheonix Group.
