And seeing how those companies always seem to be on the brink of bankruptcy, no one's really going to pour money into them. If they do, there's never a guarantee. Just look at BMW with Rover and Land Rover. They really did build good cars under BMW, but it was never enough. Now it's Tata's turn with Jaguar. It's going to crash and burn.
It's true that Jaguar aren't in the best condition financially but you can hardly compare JLR to SAAB. How many new vehicles has JLR brought out in the last 5 years? JLR will survive.
