Theres the link.

I don't think there is any relationship between Fors and Nissan. Nissan are heavily financially involved with Renault though. 8O I can't remember who owns who.. but I think the frogs bailed them out a couple of years back.

There has to be something otherwise Nissan would never have rebadged Patrols as Mavericks and Bravos' as Couriers.

nissan would rebadge their mother if it meant more sales. (as would ALL manufacturers)Ford need a 4wd to compete in this country. simple.
and arent bravo's a mazda? (who you might remember started this off by selling 323's to ford as lasers)

its just money, not loyalty.

Yep sorry stand corrected, Bravos are Mazdas. I do remember something about Ford having a share in Nissan or vice versa until Renault came into the picture some years ago. I dont think it was a huge share, but maybe they are like the incestuous taswegians.

That was all because of the Button Car Plan for Australia, or it started that way. Thats why we got Holden Corolla's and Toyota Commodores and Holden Pulsars before that.

I was talking to the guys at Pacific Landrover on the Sunshine Coast about a month ago regarding how busy their service dept was. Told me that they were getting a lot of service work from as far north as Bundaberg and that the company that owns Pacific Landrover was going to be opening a LR dealership in Bundaberg soon.

I have been getting good service at Pacific Landrover, so hopefully you should get the same quality of service in Bundaberg.
