[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 7029003, member: 718"] It looks like Carwyn Jones was as sceptical as I was…. From the BBC It was certainly obvious to me from the start that it was a ridiculous and commercially unviable concept, to have the chassis and body panels made in far away countries, the engines and transmissions coming from equally far away in another direction, to be assembled in Wales and then re-exported. I mean it is laughable that anyone ever took it to be a viable operation, even with the Welsh Assembly pumping millions into the infrastructure. Why would any commercial company add costs in such a way from the get-go? Especially with Brexit on the horizon. More especially a company with a history of flitting to countries where costs are lower at the drop of a hat, seeking ever greater efficiencies. [/QUOTE]
