Post by: lambert on November 01, 2007, 07:19:44: So lets get this right, ford own iveco ok, they also own landrover. So they are buying in vehicles to compete against themselves? Eh? No wonder they can't make any profit! :roll:

Post by: Eeyore on November 01, 2007, 08:17:30: Ford bought into the Iveco large truck business (subsequently dissolved if memory serves) - Iveco are a subsidary of Fiat.

But dang, that thing doesn't half look like a Santana!

Post by: lambert on November 01, 2007, 08:44:48: There does seem to be a lot of parts commonality in the ford and iveco 3.5 tonne trucks we have at work for iveco to be fiat's.

Post by: lambert on November 01, 2007, 08:50:15: Just had a google. I'm wrong sorry, they are fiat's. So that makes more sense.

It does, but it's interesting you say about the parts commonality twixt the Ford and Iveco vans - there must still be some carry-over there. I'm intrigued now!

And ta Wolfie - the mystery is revealed.

For the next question - I've heard claims of news reports that Iveco were going to be setting up a West Mids factory to produce something for 'a large contractor' (beleived to be the Military) - anyone know any more?

Post by: blueboar on November 01, 2007, 13:46:23: It IS the New santana, coming out next year, so the santanas at the moment are being sold with Thousands knocked off the asking price. We are in the process at work buying a pick-up
