By how much do those who have gained by war fall short of the number of those who have perished in it? No doubt you will reply that there can be no comparison, that the dead cannot be numbered, while the living who have been rewarded may be summed up with three figures.
There seem be huge numbers of MGs registered at Longbridge. It was a fiddle operated by MG Rover (and all other mass manufacturers) to artificially boost their sales figures. They registered the cars, ran them for around 1,000 miles and then sold them on as pre-registered cars at a discounted price.
I currently own 3 cars that were registered by MGR. Two have BX plates and the other one BJ. My Mk1 ZS was also a BX.

yeah that car is on an 04 plate but is actually an early 05 build. As for as I can tell from the log book they kept this one for quite a while as a demonstrator.
still it's nice to know it kicked around the factory for a while
