TVR & Rover could be stablemates!

[Kentish]

Mr Smolenski is believed to be more committed to a bid for MG Rover, and is thought to be one of just two serious contenders talking to the administrators PWC. Last week he visited Rover's Longbridge manufacturing site near Birmingham to inspect the facilities.

From news.bbc.co.uk

Russian aluminium magnate Oleg Deripaska and TVR sportscar firm owner Nikolai Smolensky have dismissed reports that they may buy MG Rover.
PricewaterhouseCoopers, administrator for the stricken carmaker, said Russian firms were among 200 potential buyers.

TVR has dismissed newspaper reports that its owner may buy MG Rover.

The bosses of Rover were so totally stupid and useless that they already sold the rights to the 25 and 75 for just £65m to the Chinese months ago...

Having lined their pension funds and pockets with this cash, they then act surprised when the Chinese then wait patiently for the company to run out of money and fold, only to pick up the remnants the Chinese also wanted from the receiver.

Second thought, maybe the boys at Rover were not stupid.

Just shameless.
