In a brief article on its website, the UK's Channel4 says that a Swedish newspaper, Dagens Industri, is reporting that supercar maker Koenigsegg is in the running to purchase either a stake in Saab, or the whole kit and caboodle.

According to the report, Koenigsegg is reportedly a front-runner to rescue the fellow Swedish automaker, with the other suitors being the Renco Group, a U.S. investment company, and the Italian automaker Fiat – the latter of which is being denied by both Fiat and Saab.

OMG, i thought koeniseigg (pardon spelling lol) was a small, but well run, and funded firm, with LOTS of knowledge on how to make GOOD cars, i had no idea it was big enough to have the finances to buy saab, saab is a BIG company innit, i know they make aeroplane engines or summat lol, or are they just buying the car side ? anyways lol. Still a BIG purchase for a firm that only builds 1 car lol (1 car to my knowledge lol)
OH, BTW, BIKE ARE BETTER :D

when run on a mixture of 15% regular petrol and 85% ethanol, known as E85. Furthermore, this makes the CCXR the most powerful homologated production car in the world, eclipsing the Bugatti Veyron by 17 HP and not counting non-homologated cars with higher HP claims that have not complied with the same strict regulations.

THIS SHOULD BE IN THE ADULT/OVER 18'S AREA !
