Default MG Rover Group Pushbikes

How rare are they as I’ve got a Land Rover discovery Karnac bike and I was talking to someone he said if you have a 2004 version it’s mg rover supplied and stuff added by Rover is this true or has he talk bull but if you have the 2016 one there tata made I’m just wondering how rare the 2004 are the I just though I’ll ask you guy as you’ll have more knowledge about then I will as I always though rover stopped making bikes in about 1912

A lot of manufacturers do bikes as accessories, Porsche, Fiat to name a few. I don’t ever recall an MG Rover option available in the showrooms

Not forgetting that Rover was originally a bicycle manufacturer, formed as the Rover Company in 1878.

They didn't start manufacturing cars until 1904.
