MG Rover collapse
In April 2005, MG Rover's proposed takeover by SAIC collapsed and the company went into receivership. Nanjing Automobile eventually bought the company's assets three months later, but when the MG range was relaunched in March 2007, the ZR and ZS were not included in the model range, only the ZT. It was replaced by the MG3 SW in 2008, sold to the Chinese market only.
