Yep. They were in talks last week, although how you can save a subsiduary while the parent company could go under has got me beat.

Why the hell would the Government bail out the British car industry, and in particular Landrover, when they have been hell-bent on destroying it for the last 10yrs?

Opel would return to being a stand alone unit outside of GM control....

Think they would only assist companies listed on the UK financial market....as that way they would be protecting the tax gained from them.....cant see them doing anything for foreign companies.

Not without GM's say-so it wouldn't. They still own it.
