20 years old and not rust at all in my Volvo 740 turbo but I never park
close to G M cars as rust might be catchy.
Happy new year and lets hope Volvo gets an owner worthy of such a marque.

Happy new year from my side as well!

I have serious doubts that the evisaged buyer will be a good owner.

Give them a chance.

The Asians have made great strides in quality; Japan was once shoddy,
but no more.

Korea has improved dramatically.

Time will tell how quickly the Indians and the Chinese advance up the
learning curve.

Why couldn't an American company buy Volvo?

(yes, the question is rhetorical ...)

Just look at what happened to rover when the Chinese bought them a
couple of years ago, they bought the technology and never produced
another car under the rover badge.

Will Geely place a copy of Chairman Mao's thoughts or the little Red Book in
the glovebox like Henry Ford did with the Model "T" and " The Protocols of
the Elders Of Zion" book in every car made by Ford ?No wonder the car was
only available in black .
