selling off Lamborghini and Ducati won't put much of a dent in a $20 billion debt...

It will if lenders' debt covenants dictate maintaining a certain leverage ratio. I would think they could come up with ways to keep those assets though - like the bond strategy mentioned. The luxury segment is very important to VW Group's brand strategy so I'd expect they'll try hard to keep these brands in-house.
 
It is no secret that a VW memo to Ducati staff reiterated that Ducati is not for sale, regardless of current events.

quite right, but in a global ponzi scheme that is fast unraveling it all ultimately hinges on Draghi and Yellen delaying the inevitable unwind, which is coming and at that point D will be the least of VW's worries...

Ponzi scheme ? I for one couldn't give a fck for their secret ecu programming. And most VW buyers seem to give a fck too. Not one person I know that owns a VW product has felt cheated. hardly a ponzi.

u do not comprehend what global ponzi is -- it has nothing to do w/ VW per se, tho VW did do some very shady short squeeze stock manipulation; to wit:

The Volkstesla Squeeze | Zero Hedge

we wont have econ lessons up in here again, but rigging ecu's is nice analogue to rigging interest rates to zero here and negative in EU... LOL. .

some old man once told me that MC riders fall into 2 groups-- oh never mind..
