Holden to give full refunds over bad ads

[Reaper]

Now the big question is whether Holden is going to write to the unfortunate 314 and offer them the option of a refund!

Or are they hoping the offer will expire without most/many/some of the 314 becoming aware that it applies to them?

I would be sure they are compelled to do so. If I qualified I'd look to see what the going rate is for whatever I had is now, and then take them up on the offer if I were better off.

The more I think about it, it doesn't make sense. So the 314 return their vehicles and receive a full refund of the purchase price. The 314 then ask to buy a new car and the dealer says...Oh, the price has gone up because the "employee price to all Australians" deal has expired.

Or they could buy their own car back at a secondhand car price... Who wins then ?
Sh!t i've confused myself even.

Spot on. Ok - I've owned the car for 6 months - get my origional $$$ back and then go buy a 6 month old (whatever) and pocket the difference (around 20% or more IMHO. Sounds like a great deal to me! Hmmmm How do it convince them to give me my money back on a Sep 04 VYII SS with 100,000 km on the clock?

I think that they might mean a refund of the extra discount that the employees got. :unsure: for example if I got the car for say $45,000 and the holden employees were able to get it for $41,000, that would mean that I get a refund of $4000 :unsure:

I reckon you can probably get a better price now than when the employee pricing deal was going on. With the VE is around the corner and petrol prices are going up .. i reckon you can pick up a new commodore for cheap.
