Default Saab Cars Close Down for good

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.


Workers leave Saab's car factory in Trollhättan.
The closure of Saab means 3,400 staff in Sweden will lose their jobs

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

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