As per Jason's request:
AutoWeek December 21, 1998
"Rover's troubles
Continuing turmoil at BMW's Rover Group has not affected BMW's plans to export
the new Mini and the MGF replacement to North America. Plans to send the Rover
75 remain undetermined.
While BMW has been making healthy profits with its cars, Rover has drained $825
million to $990 million per year since BMW bought it in 1994."
The above is the whole article.
