    Default Holden Special Vehicles records another month of record sales

    Building on the best month of sales in the history of Holden Special Vehicles, Managing Director Phil Harding today confirmed November sales had eclipsed October – with 515 retail deliveries into Australia and New Zealand – a new record for the high performance car company.

    “This is an outstanding result and further confirmation of the impact the new E series range is having on the Australian and New Zealand markets”, Phil Harding said.

    “Nearly 70% of November retail deliveries were for the new Clubsport R8, GTS and Senator Signature models and we also recorded very strong sales of the HSV VXR in November”.

    Phi Harding said with nearly 1000 HSV retail deliveries in the last two months, the company would finish 2006 strongly.

    National Sales Manager Darren Bowler said HSV was continuing to gain sales at the expense of high priced European imports.

    “Customers have recognised the remarkable value for money story our cars represent, in particular when compared with expensive German performance models”, Darren Bowler said.

    “Our launch campaign theme of Australia 1 – Germany 0 is really working for us!” he said.

    November’s 515 retail deliveries compared with 491 in October and were a full 18% above the next best month in HSV’s history – December 2004. Sales results in Victoria, Western Australia and South Australia were particularly pleasing.

    Year to date deliveries now stand at 3147.

    “This gives HSV an excellent springboard for 2007, with WM Grange to debut and the company celebrating it’s 20th anniversary”, Harding said.

    Ahhh great job HSV.

    That comment about next year being HSV's 20th anniversary makes me wonder about limited edition 20th anniversary models

    GTSR will get an LS7 I reckon, maybe an introduction of the LS3 as well seeing as the LS2 has been succeeded by it next year in the states.
