If, PSA, bought JLR?

Would you be happy if the French bought, Land Rover, off TATA?

In the meantime, one of the most expensive/important parts of your car is of French origin... Very Happy

Exactly what I was thinking Alex - personally I would have no problem if PSA did buy all/part of JLR, after all one of the most reliable LRs of recent times had a heart that came from them. Andrew

Seems to me that bits come from everywhere as NO car seems (add country here )built anymore. If it wasn't so bad it'd be funny.

No I like the, "French", they make very fine wine, unlike their cheap nasty cars.

I thought that it was now BMW that JLR is cooperating with on it's new (EV/MHEV/PHEV) chassis.

Although PSA are quite advanced with their new multi PHEV chassis, which is being used in their own 3008, and Vauxhall's
Grandland X, which in it's upcoming Hybrid4 format looks interesting. (and affordable)

AND don't forget the Ford built version of the PSA Diesel Engine that successfully powers most of our FL2s.

Well, I was at, Guadalest, last week in Spain, when they closed the road for a rally. There was a, "Diamond of Doom", that I was told was the latest, Alpine. I must say that it was seriously quick and I was impressed.
