Default Re: Will the Holden brand survive?

Forgot to mention from my previous post earlier today relating to Ep 4 of End of an Era with Shane Jacobsen .. In relation to car sales with Free Trade Agreements our politicians negotiated as described in the video link I posted seems to have limited any chance to sell especially into Asia/Europe and such due to them leaving import tariffs for engines over a certain size. One expert said that it wasn't really a level playing field in the car industry ..Maybe our politicians could have negotiated the nuts and bolts in that regard of the FTA's a lot better .. Might not have been a catalyst to save the car industry forever but it certainly sped up it's demise by the look of it going by what they said .
