Make no mistake - every last Commodore will be sold. The dealers will hold out for suckers prepared to fork out the drug moneys for the last stock

Commodore has a "bumper" monthly sales in September, 2547 units sold, 5th best seller in September and best month this year.
Sv6 at40k driveway, V8 prices are tight up there and some dealers not selling a lot, they will have to bargain soon.

how do you go with airbags if your changed the steering wheel?? I wouldn't have thought it would be compliant

Holden flat bottomed wheel is a dealer fitted accessory and/or factory option.

Yes, I’m talking the Holden flappy paddled, flat bottomed wheel which is standard on the SSVR - so no problems at all....just a far nicer wheel all round.

I think the reason they contact you, is to give you a crap trade-in on your current newish car, then on sell it for as much profit as they can get.
I haven't been contacted for years as my cars are all over 7 years old. I should be a prime target now for a new car.
Ford are the main culprits for trading, but I am still getting reminders from Holden about getting scheduled services for cars that I don't have any more.

I started getting Holden dealer emails regarding sales "specials" a month after I bought our new VF2 (eofy '16)

Still getting them...

A GOOD salesperson always follows up on a regular basis, like it or not.

I got text message the other day about a Holden sale at the dealership where I got my MY16 Cruze, not suprised, all numbers are probably in a database when you purchase off that dealer. Probably in the privacy policy they all get you to sign....

I got one of these in the mail today.

It's a nice touch to keep them on my good side in the hope I'll continue to purchase Holdens.

^^^ ".....ensure we always have the right car for you...."

Is this telling you that a new V8 ute is coming @panhead.
