MG Plans American Comeback?
By Michael Frank
It's been more than two decades since MGs were sold in the U.S., but it's still a brand many Americans remember fondly.
Then again, you might remember MGs as cool but deeply flawed cars, with cursed mechanics that left you living in constant fear of being stranded with your sick MG on some dark road.
If you thought those days were over, think again. MG-Rover recently bought Qvale , a small Italian carmaker, for an undisclosed amount of cash. This means new MGs may be hitting American roads for the first time in years--and a new generation of American MG owners could be thumbing rides.
Of course, that depends greatly on whether MG-Rover survives at all, and that's no sure thing.
