In an interview with Italy's L'Espresso weekly news magazine, Tata Chairman Ratjan Tata has revealed that he would like to buy a stake in Ferrari.
"I have two passions in my life, cars and aircraft. I have always dreamed of being able to be a fighter pilot. And I confirm the wish to participate in Ferrari's shareholding," Tata told L'Espresso.
"Luca di Montezemolo (both Fiat and Ferrari chairman) has invited me to look around in Italy because his country offers a lot of opportunities in the design and luxury sectors," he said.
Tata has definitely a big appetite and the acquisition of Jaguar and Land Rover might be an opportunity to discuss with Fiat. The Italian group has shown its interest in Jaguar technology that could be used by Alfa Romeo. Rajan Tata might offer a stake in Jaguar to Fiat in exchange of a stake in Ferrari for Tata Motors.
