Have a look at the truck industry, lets see how long it takes for someone to tell me who owns Scania, and its not Saab as the badge suggests...

foreigneRS

AddyT it is going the same way as the car industry

only a few big players left now

Aston Martin was not sold to Prodrive - it was sold to a consortium led by dae richards who also owns Prodrive

GM have never owned Fiat, though they did have a reasonable shareholding which was sold down a few years ago at a huge loss.

There had been speculation at the time that the dumping of shares was a way to reduce Fiat's share value ahead of GM exercising their option to buy the remainder, but that never happened and, as stated, the shareholding stayed around the 10% mark.

It prob has mate, Ford are financially fucked from what I've read/heard over past wee while!!

Quite the reverse, Ford are about the only one not in trouble, and did not receive any cash / backing from any Governments.
And in their current programme of rationalisation by using World models, look like they will be in a very good position when (if ??) things really pick up again

And V.W have got Alfa as number 1 on their shopping list to buy next.

I thought Laura Ashley owned Vauxhall with some of the awful shit they've been turning out the past couple of years

cjwood555

As well as the above, didn't VW buy Porsche or a large stake therein after Porsche bought loads of VW shares which subsequently dropped?

Also missing out Proton / Lotus.

ford are ok i think, well they have just bought the holden engine production line, shipped it over to the uk, and we are now refurbing all the drives and motors off that line

its quite a big project and so far we have done 6 of the 136 drives that will be coming in over the next few months....

Ford have been doing ok since about 2008 and have been getting better since they didn't accept government aid. They refinanced and mortgaged a lot of assets which gave them the working capital to keep going and restructure without needing a hand out. 2.55 billion profit first 1/4 this year would indicate they are doing ok so far!
