    Default Holden Fuel Offer

    dont you think holden was smart and knew that fuel was going to go below 99cents when they ran the promo a month ago that you pay only 99cent if you buy a new VE. i think they knew something before everyone else that prrices were going to go below 99cents so they took advantage of it. very smart marketing

    Either way any benefit they may have got from it will be offset by selling less cars at the moment. Shame, it was a good marketing idea I thought.

    Here in NZ they are running a promo that is $1 off per liter for 2 years with any new car. With our fuel price in NZ being arround the $1.439 a liter for ULP91 i think it will be a while before this promo be comes one of free fuel for 2 years if we eventually hit $1 a liter.

    Holy crap!!! $1 off per litre? Thats great! Wish they did this in OZ, looks like we get the raw end of the deal, even though their marketing suggests 'times are tougher, holden and Australians are tougher'. I guess we are 'tougher' cause we get to wrong end of the stick every time.

    If my life depended on it I'd say they knew fuel was coming down. GM has always been in bed with the Oil companies.
