Swedishbricks website members are discussing an article in a Dutch newspaper that Ford is looking for a buyer for Volvo. Since I don't read Dutch, I can't say whether the story is true or not..

Apparently, the Swedes are not towing the company line. Industry watchers are speculating that they will repurchase the name and factories in Sweden and leave the others with Ford.

Brother can you spare 6.5 billion US?

I suppose anything's possible but who else has that kind of $$$ besides Ford? I've also heard it rumored that Volvo's been very lucretive (profitable) for Ford and if so, why would they then sell it? Wouldn't make sense.
