Not for a couple of weeks!
The local dealer here in Bundy is building a new showroom as we speak. Looks like lots of money being thrown at it. I will get a pic in the next day or so. It should be noted that the Holden dealer is also the Mazda and Mitsubishi dealer as well so that may have something to do with it.
So Mazda Mitsu and Holden?, no wait ,, Opel? no wait,, Damn maybe I should just have bought the Program at the door...
Yep, Ross Gray has all 3. Another local is Ford, Toyota, VW, Suzuki, Great Wall and a 3rd has about 13 of the others. Merc, all the Chrysler ones, Nissan and LR.Quote:

"Multi Franchise"?...I'd say that is exactly what's happening. Not many dealerships operate with only one franchise these days.Quote:

Bring back the Monaro to compete against the Mustang.

Hopefully the build quality isnt typically american.

Correct. Many cars, and some very "upper echelon" ones, are built in 3rd world Countries these days, with VERY low costs of wages (actually of everything), which does not at all seem to affect the quality of the finished product.Quote:
