since malaysia is a protected market, VW would have gained a cash cow.
if the deal was successful, it would be bad for the country. if it isnt successful like now, its still bad for the country.

thats a lose lose situation.

Thank God VW has come to it’s senses on this one – Putting the VW name to Proton Rubbish would have been as big a mistake as BMW-LR, Daimler-Chrysler, and a few others.

Would have set VW/Porsche/Audi back 20 years……

Their vehicles are heaps of crap and if the Malaysians want to maintain control of it so badly then walk away and let them have it. For a while they dribbled on so much about having Lotus tuned suspension but even that could not sell cars. Putting Ugly Betty’s head on Elle’s body is not going to make her look any better, although she would certainly go a lot better (with a paper bag over her head of course) ROFLMAO. Put a paper bag on a Proton and you still would not buy it.

Let Proton die. It was political bull**** from the start and still is. No wonder nobody can see any sense in bailing it out.

*****PRIMO!*****

Proton should just shut up shop, they sell bugger all in Oz

If they where not owned by the GovCo of My. they would already be dead and buried.

I can broker a deal with the sale of Lotus though!

“Asia’s anwser to BMW” LOL Gold!!!
