MG may be dead, but their SV sports car lives on, found on Jalopnik

Now we all know that MG died this year? And the Chinese picked over the corpse and the plant in Longbridge is closed, right?? Well, I was surprised to find this on Jalopnik this morning an article saying that not only is the MG SV still alive, but the unit that builds it was not part of the sale, and actually turned a profit. So there is hope that this shodily built British "Supercar" powered by a Ford 4.6 V8 will live on. And when I say it's shodily built, that's not a dig at a car I've never driven, it comes from Jerremy Clarkson's test on BBC Top Gear.
