STOCKHOLM, March 28 (Reuters) – Zhejiang Geely Holding Group, China’s largest private-run car maker, agreed on Sunday to buy Ford Motor’s (F.N) Volvo car unit, the country’s biggest overseas auto purchase.

Details of the deal will be provided at a news conference later on Sunday, Volvo’s spokesman Per-Ake Froberg said.
