M.G. (Morris Garages) is a British sports car manufacturer, who begun in the 1920s as a sales promotion sideline by the business manager, Cecil Kimber, within William Richard Morris's Oxford city retail sales and service business. Cecil Kimber (1888-1945) was an automobile engineer and in 1924 the founder of MG Car Company Ltd.. William Richard Morris (1877-1963), known as Sir William Morris, was a British motor manufacturer and philanthropist. He was the founder of Morris Motors Company Limited and in 1924, founder of company MG. Kimber was an employee of William Richard Morris. The MG business was Morris's personal property until 1935 when he sold MG to his holding company, Morris Motors Limited, restructuring his holdings before issuing shares in Morris Motors to the public in 1936. MG underwent many changes in ownership starting with Morris merging with Austin in The British Motor Corporation Limited (BMC) in 1952. MG became the MG Division of BMC in 1967 and in 1968 was created British Leyland Motor Corporation.
