Why not save it and share it, so that others can compare it with the known available versions. I suspect it's based on another version of MG (probably the French one, if the messages are in French).

MGBE and French keyboard suspects to Belgian ROM.

I don't think it's an official Sinclair ROM! Very interesting nonetheless.

The question is, if it is modified by importing company, or DIY home made.
And no answer.

Assuming the BE was meant to stand for Belgium, it may well be a Flemish hack, depending on how close Flemish or Belgian Dutch is to Netherlands Dutch for those words. Are any of the error messages in the same language? Might be worth preserving, possibly.
