Aircraft were only a side business for Grob, his core business were assembly lines for the german automotive manufacturers. With the troubles in the world economy at the time, I am not sure it was the Jet alone that caused the company to get in trouble.
Grob went bankrupt and set back the Lear 85 as Bombardier had to take it all back in house (only to send a lot to the outhouse, but that is another topic). They're not making anything for Lear currently.
