It might make sense for TATA to have Jag/LandRover in India. But who gains?
TATA of course. But ultimately, it’s Death.

The decision to build in China is insane – like a Swiss watch manufacturer saying Now You Too can have a Rolex (it’s made in China).

The newer Jags were designed by Designers and helped by Ford’s investment. Silly Ford.

Nobody ever said the people running Ford were smart.
That’s why Ford stock is the lowest of all the automakers.
Tata never said it would stop making the cars in England.

My point is: Jags have a symbolic value. That is lost if even some are built in China. Building in India is rather the same. It suits TATA (against whom I have no probs) but the Icon dies.
I mean, what would you think of a Porsche (say) built in Mexico City?
