There was an article in one of the financial papers a couple of weeks ago saying that Jaguar-Landrover had done a deal with the Chinese government to supply them with 40,000 vehicles.

Yep this is one of my Osbournes initiatives. They prob need that many to strip down and work out how to copy and build their own for 1/2 the price ! The missus - SD4 HSE - Black - 2012

What's so amazing? They perform very well on our snowy and muddy roads where all their offroad capabilities are really in high demand. I bet soon all 4WD freels will be reserved for export. And for England they made a special version - eD4. Not exported to Russia at all. Laughing

Absolutely on the mark mattbridge
The LR deception is a far cheaper method to "legally" acquire industrial intelligence than their (the Chinese) previous mission, buying Volvo - or - their consistent State sponsored illegal methods of obtaining the intellectual property of others, one of which was the recently exposed case of Renault's hybrid electronics.
