If the second largest economy in the World, the entire continent of Europe and now the largest economy in the World is struggling to keep their economies and health facilities going what chance does India have? Their growing automotive sales are just going to plummet and Tata may well want to hive off their passenger car business but they have got to find a buyer or a partner and in these difficult times it will be hard for them to find a suitor with a pocket full of cash to invest. Defender 90XS SW

Some of the figures coming out of VW Group are eye watering:

"Volkswagen Group may have to cut jobs if the coronavirus pandemic is not brought under control as the automaker is still spending about 2 billion euros ($2.2 billion) a week, CEO Herbert Diess told German TV channel ZDF.

VW employs 671,000 people and has 124 factories around the world of which 72 are in Europe, with 28 in Germany alone.

VW Group owns the Audi, Bentley, Bugatti, Lamborghini, Porsche, Seat and Skoda brands. The group sold 10.96 million vehicles last year. It also produces Ducati motorbikes as well as MAN and Scania trucks."

Will somebody tell Fred that he is supposed to be socially distancing himself from his next door neighbours, the Rubbles. Their journey to Jurassic Park is not classed as essential travel either. Rolling with laughter Defender 90XS SW
