The British Leyland Motor Corporation (BLMC) was a vehicle manufacturing company formed in the
United Kingdom in
1968. Ultimately, it would become
nationalised as British Leyland, often referred to as just BL. It incorporated much of the British owned motor vehicle industry, but had a troubled history. In 1986 it was renamed as the
Rover Group, later to become
MG Rover Group, which went bankrupt in 2005, bringing an end to mass car production by British owned manufacturers - with
MG becoming part of
Chinese Nanjing Automobile and
Rover disappearing completely, with its brand being bought by
Ford.
