Take the "A" off tata and what do you have? TAT! as in rubbish , i cannot see the standard of the landrovers being the same anymore , as many people say this is the end of land rover , im glad i still own a 1988 original 68,000 miles defender.

Ford are nuts for getting rid of JLR for just $1.7b. I'm sure they will be making for profit then that over the next few year. Although it the best for JLR to be out of the control of Ford crackpots!

Come on you Europeans Meat Head. Jaguar and Land Rover makes crap cars and unreliable anyway. They can't sell their cars, over price and reliability are crap. I would make a bet with you guys, Tata Corp(India) will do much better job.

You are so ill informed it is hard to know where to start. let me try by referring you to recent JD Power surveys which show Jaguar to be amongst the best built cars around.

So whats the first thing a big company does when it buys another , cuts back on materials and people , so then the cheaper parts come in ie Britpart (which imports parts from china) then they say that Staff and the production of vehicals in the uk is too expensive , so they transfer it abroad , use cheaper non high quality metals and so on , i do understand that landrover/jaguar are not the most reliable in the world and its always good for new investment , Not so much straight away but down the line it will happen , i mean its over ?400 to tax a defender and alot of people will not pay that.

Maybe if you are selling white goods my friend, but not when you have just bought your way into two prestige brands with 50 years of heritage. Mercedes took a kicking for scrimping on quality a few years ago and JLR has enough challenges without making itself new ones. I have to say, I don't believe any of what you are saying will happen in a way that brings the results you claim.

most of u ppl underestimate TATA. true theyr unknown around the world. tata just came up with the 2500$ car which may look n feel cheap but its no small achievement.they are the biggest name in india and the man behind tata is a true industrialist. im sure hes gonna do a much better job than ford.
