Goodness what a sad day, 110 years was a good run but instead of celebrating with a 51 percent family controlled company with a great new product to push they have slid away. I guess with the 'company figures' for the last two years it was a good time to exit as with electrification slowly looming and their own failure in that department and ongoing compliance costs spiralling the shareholders took their opportunity, funny I expected it to be BMW . I can't help wondering what some of the oldest dealers will make of the relentless push upmarket - Lifes and Melvyn for example. One upside of this gloomy news is that all of us with existing cars have just had our investment firmed up. Off for a drive in the sunshine in my hot smelly rattly trad then a drink, cheers Peter Morgan and HFS. ( not Chianti)
