Ford spokesman John Gardiner confirmed to the Associated Press today that the automaker is in talks with many potential buyers of its Swedish brand Volvo – and apparently this time Ford likes the numbers that are on the table.

“Ford has contact with a number of parties that are interested in Volvo”s future,” Gardiner said. “We are having preliminary discussions determining the interest.”

He said that there are ongoing talks with “quality” potential buyers that could lead to a sale. He declined to disclose any information on who these “potential buyers” are.

It has been previously reported that Ford is looking for at least $6 billion for Volvo.
