There used to be plenty of normal MGM's about, but even those have disappeared.  You tend to only see those at shows nowadays.

I saw a white one about three weeks ago, it was an MG, but it wasn't a turbo & in very good condition too (they usually rusted away in 5 years)

I think you might be right. They have only just stopped making the Hillman Hunter in, can't remember which Country :-[
I believe that there is an enormous stock of part's including body's for Rover SD1 cars in India as well.
