The reason the auto industry in Australia is heading the way it is, is clearly shown by what you just posted. You purchased a vehicle that met your needs, which wasn't Australian made or designed.Yeah, I do and I'm not happy with that fact. To paraphrase your ealier comment, you bought a car that suited your needs. So did I. I tried a longer response to your memo last night which addressed that very issue but the internet connection failed and I cbf going through it all again. Suffice it to say that if my last car hadn't been so impractical for my current needs, it would still be in my driveway. It made a mockery of all the claims that Commodores are crap.
What I drive now has no bearing on my feelings about the direction this country is taking in relation to its industrial base and I get a bit antsy when people like you just seem to say "Who gives a ****?", usually because it has no bearing on them directly.
I would love to see Holden stick around manufacturing here, but eventually you have to reach a point where enough is enough and it's just not viable.
