		<description><![CDATA[It’s depressing to be reminded all over again today of the sad and shabby history of MG-Rover. Much more sad is that it looks dangerously likely that history might repeat itself with Vauxhall-Opel.
BMW unloaded MG-Rover in early 2000. It was looking at bids from venture capital firms including Apax and Alchemy. Both planned a slimming [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=foreman.blogs.topgear.com&blog=4140443&post=1133&subd=bbcforeman&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Until this morning I couldn’t reliably spell Koenigsegg. It was a little company of fewer than 50 employees making fewer than 20 cars a year. Now it has effectively taken over Saab.
Accepted wisdom is that to compete long-term, smallish car companies (of which Saab is one) need to be in the hands of bigger car [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=foreman.blogs.topgear.com&blog=4140443&post=1026&subd=bbcforeman&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, Foreman called it wrong. I thought Fiat would get control of Vauxhall and Opel, but the giant Canadian car-components-maker Magna won. I was looking at it from an automotive point of view, and the result was skewed by politics.
Once it was clear Opel-Vauxhall’s American parent GM started sliding towards today’s bankruptcy, GM had to cast [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=foreman.blogs.topgear.com&blog=4140443&post=1001&subd=bbcforeman&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The band is about to stop in the big game of Manufacturer Musical Chairs, and Fiat – having already snapped up Chrysler – looks set to get its hands on GM Europe too.

That’s Vauxhall, Opel and Saab, in other words. Though it’s possible that Saab will be sold off separately, Fiat is keen to acquire [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=foreman.blogs.topgear.com&blog=4140443&post=971&subd=bbcforeman&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
