In MG’s native England, the company’s cars filled roles from family transport to competition driving.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMG, as we think of it today, began in the 1920s, but its roots go back even further with a young William Morris. Initially working in the booming bicycle trade, he eventually branched into motorcycle and car repair with the fledgling Morris Garage (hence, MG) in 1907. By the mid 1920s, the successful \u003cb\u003eMorris Garages\u003c\/b\u003e was in a position to begin manufacture of its own cars under the MG name.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMG grew significantly in the years before World War II, building and racing its classic Midgets and Magnettes. World War II provided challenging times for the company as it did for the UK and much of the world. In the postwar period, a focus on sales outside England, and particularly in the United States, both defined MG’s product line and ensured its success. Legendary cars followed, including \u003cb\u003eMG TC\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eTD\u003c\/b\u003e, and \u003cb\u003eTF\u003c\/b\u003e followed by thoroughly modern \u003cb\u003eMGA\u003c\/b\u003e,\u003cb\u003e MGB\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eMGB GT\u003c\/b\u003e, and \u003cb\u003eMidget\u003c\/b\u003e. \u003cb\u003eMagnettes \u003c\/b\u003eand the \u003cb\u003e1100\u003c\/b\u003e offered options for those wanting sedans and more practical cars.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMG ownership moved through a number of UK companies in the postwar period as well as ownership by BMW and today’s SAIC, a Chinese-based company through which it operates as MG Motor. Highlights along the way included the \u003cb\u003eMGB GT V8\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eMG Metro Group B rally car\u003c\/b\u003e, and \u003cb\u003eMG\u003ci\u003eF\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e.
