Finally: Spyker up to make some profit!

After years and years of struggling Dutch car manufacturer Spyker is starting to make its way up towards making a profit. Recently Spyker released its annual report and it looks like they are crawling towards better times. 'Nulla tenaci invia est via' as they would say. If you hang on, all doors will open eventually.

In 2008 the factory in Zeewolde built 43 Spyker cars. The company almost doubled their production compared to 2007 when they only built 26 cars. 2007 has been a rough year for Spyker due to all the trouble they got themselves into thanks to their attempts on running a Formule One team.

There is good new as well for C8 Aileron customers! Spyker is trying as hard as possible to get the first customer car out this quarter. We've got some news on the D8 Peking-To--Paris as well. Spyker has shown the car to the audience a long time ago and now, two years later, they've started testing the car. We can see a heavily modified Land Rover Defender with a Lotus suspension attached to it. The sports car manufacturer hopes to produce the first D8 cars by the end of this year.
