German Economy Minister Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg said yesterday that the government will listen to any other bids for Opel, but “priority” should be given to Magna.
Fiat is also believed to still be interested in Opel. Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi told reporters last week that Fiat’s offer for Opel was “still on the table” after a meeting with Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne.
