RIP Holden brand name.

Is someone going to organise a funeral ?
There should be a Public holiday or national day of mourning.

It would show GM how much the Holden brand is loved by Australia.

And we could have it at the local bowling club..would easily hold the numbers who still care about our brand.

who still loved the brand?
take a look at the sales figures. It’s not a loved brand any longer.
It’s demise was inevitable and at least GM are giving it a dignified death

Whilst I said earlier that I'm not surprised in some ways I still find it hard to believe that a company that was once the undisputed leading car maker is abandoning right hand drive markets. How is General Motors doing elsewhere?

Dislike of product doesn't equal dislike of brand, particularly the legacy of the brand.

That costs money. Centerlink carpark might be better.

Join us in breaking the record for the most Holdens in convoy!

At this year's OTR The Bend 500 we're looking to celebrate Holden's contribution to Australian culture. We're hoping to break the world record for the most privately owned Holdens in convoy, and maybe in one place. What better place to pay tribute than in South Australia, their spiritual home, during their last factory backed race in the state.

The tribute will incorporate a cruise to the OTR The Bend 500 plus a show and shine on the Saturday of the event.

Holdens of all eras and models welcome!

Please join us in paying tribute - register your interest now. You will be contacted closer to the event to finalise arrangements. Registration is per vehicle, please change the quantity to the number of passengers attending. If registering multiple vehicles, please register separately for each vehicle.
