Rover cars got blown out at half price Posted by JerseySaab [Email] (#666) [Profile/Gallery] (more from JerseySaab) on Fri, 9 Sep 2011 11:40:41 In Reply to: Re: Thoughts on purchasing an '11 9-5 ....post recent news., EGD [Profile/Gallery] , Fri, 9 Sep 2011 09:53:51 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I've read that when Rover went belly up in 2005 the remaining new cars were sold at half price or less. (I'm sure our friends in the UK have much more direct knowledge of this.)
Hopefully Saab will not go under but it is admittedly looking very bad right now. If the worst happens, as you say service and parts would be a very major problem. There have not been enough new 9-5 and 9-4X cars manufactured to interest the aftermarket. How feasible would it be to buy and drive a car when even something like a tail-light lens would not be available for replacement, even if you could get the car at a very low price?
