Lets look at this without the aid of rose colour specticals, a dutch company selling about 40 cars a year and running up quite substanial losses over the last few years is taking over a swedish firm that makes 1000 times as many cars which has never made a profit this century.

Not exactly a sure fired success, and Saab cars are basically GM products with a different body, how are they going to develope and then find the money to put into product any new products, the Grants from the swedish Government will cover some continued production but for how long.

This deal could spell the end for Spyker, I can see no long term future for Saab, unless huge sums are invested and no one was prepared to do that.
