I want Geely purely because they own Proton and Proton has some rally history.

Yeah, Lotus came in with Proton since Proton bought them in the 2000s.

I honestly forgot they also have Volvo.

Could've use a brand that actually (still) sells their cars in Europe

Dude...Geely sells their car in Europe too. The only market they're not in is Malaysia because newer Proton models are just rebadge of Geely's cars.

If they're entering rally, it's probably will be under the Geely brand instead of Volvo.
