I am a bit surprised that JLR didn't see this coming. Porsche have invested a lot of money at Silverstone in a huge driver experience centre with test tracks, skid pans, off road etc. They would hardly want their landlord to be a potential competitor.

When I first found out about the potential buy I looked online and was surprised to see porsche were already there. I wondered how it would work. I guess LR have bigger plans and don't see them as a problem. Hippo's videos - Honorary Tratterer

Porsche might have a point - LR's current test track used to be shared with Aston Martin I believe but there seems to have been some sort of disagreement in the past and Aston no longer have access, despite being located at Gaydon. Ex AA Series III LWB Safari - Gone
