Both car makers expected to sign the purchase agreement for Ford's money-losing Swedish car unit in the first quarter of next year, paving the way for completion of the deal in the second quarter, Geely said yesterday.
Further discussions would focus on finalization of documentation and financing, the private car maker said, adding that the deal was still subject to government approval.
