There've been alot of reports that the bidders are really low-balling the Jag/LR package, down in the $1billion range. That's pretty patheitcally low, and I wonder if it's too low. I would expect this sale to not happen if Ford doesn't feel they're getting adequate value.

Agreed, I also wonder if Ford isn't pitting LR/Jaguar and Volvo against each other to ascertain which one they can obtain a great long term value by selling. Volvo will bring more money up front to be sure, but Jaguar/LR arguably have more long term potential and represent some serious red ink at the moment which translates into money recouped as well.
