Switzerland 2008 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Stornoway Grey

Can you please explain to me what happened while I blinked?

Few month ago Porsche was buying VW and now the opposite happens, what did I miss? '08 RRS TDV8
I converted my diesel RRS to run on an environmentally friendly mixture of caribou fat and baby seals oil

Piech that moronic shareholder of Porsche (he has like 38%) is an autistic dumb a** Censored and cant stand Mr. Wiedeking (funny guy who loves to party) - first hand infos... Piech's son is my neighbour...... so first they told him to get as much shares of VW as he could get and then they let him down....... its a family thing the Piech clan vs the Porsche clan..... Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad

Problem now is that our town (Stuttgart) will get like 300 million Euros less tax/year when VW takes over Porsche cause VW will pay to the town of Wolfsburg and that really sucks ! Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad

Porsche was the 4th biggest tax payer here ....... Rolling Eyes Big Cry Big Cry

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

This was also on the Today programme's financial section this morning
Porsche should think themselves lucky that they have a European parent and not a Chinese one ................ just think what would have happened had Nanjing or Shanghai Automotive taken over and badged all the cars as MG's or Roewe's or even Fairwinds........................ and put 1.6ltr engines in them so the teeming millions in China could afford to buy them. The Cayenne could become the Fairwind Fahrt. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Germany 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Bonatti Grey

This is truly sad for Porsche. Confused

The only guys profiting from this is the family Porsche/Piech, by using some genius of themselves and some stupid politicians those guys will change their 100% part on Porsche - worth about 17 bn. Euros at the moment - against about 50% on a Volkswagen and Porsche Group - those 50% will be worth significantly more than 50 bn. Euros. Shocked
This is absolutely genius and due to the way they did it they don't even have to pay personnal taxes on that gain, just brilliant (for them)!

For Porsche, all the employees and all the fans of the make this is sad or terrible. In my opinion it is also sad that two of the best ever German managers had to go because of this thing. Really sad. But we should have known before, usually bad things happen when there are Austrian leaders in Germany...
