Well, it really wasn't a bad car, per se... was actually quite good... but it was overpriced and looked like a drunk eel that had been in an accident.

#3, Yes, you're right. It seems very poorly conceived (and came dead last in the last comparo I saw it included in - 6 years ago.)

#5, Le' me esplain... wait, no, there's too much. Le' me sum up.

Maserati want to make low-volume car like TVR.
Maserati lose interest.
De Tomaso pick up pieces of project, name it De Tomaso Biguá.
Car renamed De Tomaso Mangusta.
De Tomaso (the guy) have stroke.
De Tomaso (the company) lose interest.
Qvale (businessman) want to continue project.
Produce and sell car as Qvale Mangusta.
Car doesn't sell well, many left over components and chassis.
MG, short of cash, buys leftovers and rebodies car, rebranding it the MG XPower SV.
MG Xpower SV hits Jeremy Clarkson in the head. Crowd rejoices.

...also, these were powered by the 4.6L Modular V8 from the Mustang. The MG version came with an optional nitrous package, pushing horsepower to ~1000.
