Mesh is looking like hot favourite to buy Carrera, its stricken rival, judging from its confidence in buying the domain name: CarreraComputers.co.uk. This registered at easily.co.uk on October 17 WebConsultancy on behalf of Mesh Computers PLC.

Carrera today confirmed that it was 'actively discussing' the sale of the company as a going concern, but named no names. However, trade speculation has centered around Evesham, Mesh, and Hi-Grade as prospective buyers.

Creditors of Carrera successfully installed Pannell Kerr Forster as a joint administrator of the system builder, after applying to the High Court, on Friday, October 13. Carrera had wanted a single administrator of its own choosing. ®
