BMW/Rover
Question:
it’s weird… here in NZ, BMW has 1.6% of the market share of new cars, and rover has 1.5%.

Just read a Reuters report on the coming BMW stockholders meeting, which will involve a dissection of BMW’s plans for turning around Rover. German newspapers have taken to calling Rover, "The English Patient" I got a kick out of that :^)
Response:
Can anyone explain why they continue to support Rover and don’t just cut their losses? That will do down as one of the worst business decisions in a long time (purchasing Rover). Dave
