British Leyland NOW - Who Owns The Marques, India, China and Germany?!

In this video we cover one of the most debated topics regarding the british car industry and its decline who owns what, who owns Rover makers of the P6, SD1 and 75, who owns Triumph makers of the 2000 Stag and TR series, who owns Standard makers of the Ensign and Vanguard. What happened to MG, how BMWs cunning plan stopped Rover from becoming Chinese and how Nanjing and later SAIC Chinese state owned firms ended up owning the majority of British brands such as Austin, Morris and Riley. As well as what happened to Lanchester.

We chart the brand ownership from boom to bust analysing how they rose and fell.

Just a note; not all was bad with British leyland and the British car industry isn’t dead it is very much alive. Regarding MG Rover and the many other eras I covered as much as I could in the small recap but longer videos will be produced covering these eras.
