Are you sure thats what it said ????
Was it on Radio Wave ? Or a 'proper' station ?

Can't be true, surely

Is this "after" the news last week about laying off of half their staff?

Or the same story.

Nope looks like it's true.
Factory said to be closing in 6 months.

to be relocated somewhere else......
but probably not if they are only making 2 cars a week

Shame.
