VW News And Features

["beetle BUZZ" <stefan@opolus.com>]

Hi folks,

Louise Piech-Porsche passed away on Wednesday at the age of 
95. She was Volkswagen AG Chairman Ferdinand Piech's mom. 
She also co-founded Porsche (her father was Ferdinand Porsche 
and her brother Ferry Porsche).

Also, reports say that chairman Piech asked his engineers to see 
if any existing VW platforms could be used for Rover, which is 
owned by BMW. Things are heating up with merger/takeover 
rumors. Full story is up at Beetle Buzz in the VolksWatch section:

There's also a feature on Europe's Passat V6 TDI at Beetle Buzz.
