It had nothing to do with the cars - Honda are still going strong.

No, it had something to do with them selling out to BMW.

Honda pulled out sharpish, as they didn't want the germans getting hold of their technology.

BMW then proceeded to strip anything of value from Rover (ie Mini), then left them high and dry to rot.
