Interesting, it seems contradictory to what i've been reading elsewhere recently, but it's a good sign!

Earth to Defute ! Come in defute !

Where does that leave Aston ? How will it affect my inability to purchase one now as opposed to my inability to purchase one later ?!



As to LR - I can't see Ford selling it, it's far more successful financially now that at any time in the recent past. Also judging by past efforts, Ford needs somewhere to develop decent off road technology. Exploder anyone ?

I think this is good news for LR :)

The days of a niche manufacturer being able to survive on their own are long gone. Corporate parts bins are the only way for manufacturers to survive now :(
