Default Ford has stuffed Land rover too

Add Land Rover to the list of Ford stuffups . The Solihull factory is presently up for sale . The word is the plant may be closed for good . The end of a era, beginning in 1948 with the 80" series 1 .

Jaguar lost big buck for Ford also .

My 1987 XF Falcon runs like a swiss watch . 200k on it and it's barely run in . I can buy parts for it anywhere . I paid 300 bucks for it at a scrap metal yard , and there were plenty to choose from .
