Deloitte & Touche Corporate Finance has cemented its relationship with MG Rover, working on the UK car manufacturer's purchase of Italian sports car business of Qvale Automotive, the US-Italian car group.

The Deloitte team was led by Maghsoud Einollahi, head of mergers and acquisitions for the UK and assisted by Ian Barton, a director in the same group. Both worked primarily with the support of a Manchester-based team in tandem with the firm's Milan office.
