Fiat is buying them out. Not too bad though as all the later CDTi's are Fiat engines...

Aparently Magna have bought both opel and vauxhall. Looks like job losses on the way though as apparenly the workforce for opel/vauxhall europe is at "excesive capacity"

Opel and Vauxhall are financially productive though arn't they?

I think Vauxhall has been doing better in the last few years than it was back in the old Astra GSi (Mk3)/Corsa B days...
