Top speed is 150mph - but the price is a whopping í‚á£42,000.

Finance for the bid - which relates only to the MG brand, the TF two-seater sports car and associated manufacturing equipment - is supported by a consortium of investors including an overseas vehicle manufacturer, a US-based investment fund and a wealthy entrepreneur.
The Chapman Automotive plan sees the revival of the MG TF model only and the transfer of its production from Longbridge to another facility in the West Midlands.
