Just before Christmas news emerged of a revised bid from niche Dutch car manufacturer Spyker to buy Saab. Supposedly the GM heavies didn’t really care much for the toys left in their Christmas stockings by Spyker and the second bid was also turned away.
However, like a determined kid who wants to get their way, it is understood that Spyker is trying to flog a dead horse one more time.
GM have set a deadline for Saab takeover bids which expires in a couple of days. Saab reckon there’s potentially more than one party ready to take on the Swedish brand, too. So far, though, Spyker are the only known bidders. I guess more will be revealed by the end of the week.
