Sports cars to be built at factory
A start date has been set for the production of MG cars at the Longbridge plant.
Chinese owners SAIC/Nanjing said they will begin producing an MG sports car, the TF LE500, at the Birmingham factory in August.
The announcement followed speculation as to the future of the huge plant, after the Nanjing Automobile Corporation (NAC) bought the assets of the collapsed MG Rover organisation in 2005.
