Here is an interview with the CEO as printed in Car magazine. Car I read it that any assurances are only temporary and dependant no doubt on a government bung. It simply doesnt make economic sense to have an assembly plant here producing penny numbers based on 60% imported components when there are half employed plants in France where their major share holder is.

That's an interesting article and the bottom line appears that they have many concerns about their future survival globally and we are the petty cash account, long may that remain so and keep employment levels up in Sunderland.
