GM to shut down Saab
General Motors announces closure of 62-year-old Swedish carmaker
after collapse of negotiations with Spyker.


The Yank GM could not find a buyer
so Down the Drain goes Saab.
Shame.

Yes with No Buyer
no more new stock will be made,
and spares will go up in price- as they run out.


Saab make great Engines and Cars.
It is a Sad week.

The high end retailers will always suffer most in hard times. Saab don't exactly do a budget range.
