A neighbor just bought a new Land Rover LR-2, and it's a very impressive vehicle. Practical and looks great, too.

rejoice. we will now get crap that they have mulled over extra hard.

i think they should sell off ford NA, and focus on Jag and Land Rover. Perhaps Ford Europe/Australia as well. ]]>Sep 13th 2007 3:35PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/Sep 13th 2007 3:43PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/
If the CO2/global warming hysteria continues, Jag and (especially) Land Rover will only devalue.

Also, Mazda and Volvo have contributed to the quality of Ford products while Jag and Land Rover have little to offer FoMoCo.]]>Sep 13th 2007 3:43PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/Sep 13th 2007 3:45PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/Sep 13th 2007 3:45PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/
Jag has too much competition right now. Its name plate is not what it used to be. Land Rover is fine, but as Dave said, unless they start to product more fuel efficient SUV's, they won't be selling much now a days.

Same reason why GM has GMC, so Buick and Pontiac dealers have the extra truck volume.

Note: Automotive News gathers its info from the automakers, suppliers and dealers. Its not just all speculation like so many other publications.]]>Sep 13th 2007 11:40PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/Sep 13th 2007 3:57PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/
VW would never happen. They already have Audi so they have no interest in Jag. Maybe LR but you can't get LR with out Jag. ]]>Sep 14th 2007 10:33AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/
Since more 'other' articles are popping up again, does that mean that all the cars that are meant to debut in Frankfurt have already done so, or are there more coming?

As I recall, the Detroit show debuted most cars within 3 days. Any info would be appreciated.

By the way I think Ford dumping Jaguar and Land Rover completely is a good thing, it'll let the companies all get back to their roots and focus on themselves more.]]>Sep 13th 2007 4:04PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/Sep 13th 2007 4:25PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/Sep 13th 2007 5:26PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/13/ford-to-jag-and-land-rover-dont-let-the-door-hit-you-on-the-wa/Sep 13th 2007 6:24PM
