As Britain`s most popular sporting marque, MG has emerged as one of a handful of British motoring names to survive into the 21st century. From the quintessential open two-seater MG Midget, through the booming post-war years & the emergence of MG as a provider of sports cars for the world, Jonathan Wood provides an in-depth analysis of the rise & fall of a motoring legend.
