17. Should Tata Motors Purchase Jaguar and Land Rover?

18. What are the Cons?
Pre tax losses of 4.8 BILLION between 2004-2006
Jaguar was the biggest contributor to the loss for trying to compete with BMW and
Mercedes-Benz

19. MORE CONS!?
Unions!
Conditions were TATA could not purchase Jaguar and Range Rover,
without Ford maintaining a minority stake to keep 3 factories open

20. How about some pros?
Both Jaguar and Range Rover are Historic
Brands!
Jaguar 1922! Land Rover 1947!

21. Recommendation?

22. Why Yes?
With Proper marketing and branding, Jaguar and
Land Rover can be one of the top cars again.
