But Spyker CEO won't give definite deadline

Spyker's CEO says he expects a decision from GM on whether it will sell it Saab "very soon".

Spyker chief executive Victor Muller texted the Reuters news agency, telling it that talks were ongoing and adding the "outcome will be clear very soon."

However, there has been no official indication of a deadline for a deal.

Investment firm Genii Capital, which has the backing of F1 supremo Genii Capital, has also said this week that it remains in the running to buy Saab.

Fair enough, we've been disappointed before, but let's be hopeful, let's keep the spotlight on until this one is a done deal!

Saab Automobile is set to win a stay of execution from General Motors as the US carmaker closes in on a deal to sell its Swedish unit to Spyker Cars of the Netherlands.

Several people close to the negotiations said a provisional agreement could come as soon as Monday, bringing a halt to preparations by GM to close one of Sweden’s most iconic brands.
