Incorrect Nanjing bought MG, Austin, Morris and Wolseley. The Rover brand had been licenced by BMW to the UK company, Phoenix Venture Holdings and was sold by BMW to Ford when MG Rover went under. As Ford had first right of refusal on the brand they became owners when they met BMW's asking price last year.
Rover is now the property of Land Rover. So if TATA get Land Rover they get Rover. Check with the UK trademark office if you still don't think I'm correct, but I'm 100% right!
