Put simply... why dosnt the government tax the hell out of anything, except fords and dare say it holden also??
Therefore lightly pushing/forcing Australians to buy, lease, etc Australian cars??
By having, every european, asian, or american car avalible....
Like with ford- why attach kia, and hyundai to your dealerships.
If someone comes in say wanting a good 4 cylinder car, why have a rio, or laganos what ever they are around for the buyer to be influenced by- they should be shown, a fiesta, or focus, even 2nd hand lynx's, cougars etc
Then ford has better sales figures, more profits... more money to spend = more staff, more jobs, more dealerships.... Supply and demand it's simple.
And to think our government sold us out as loyal ford fans.... so they could get into bed with asia...
Makes me sick.... get rid of, kia, daewoo, hyundai, suzuki, mazda, etc etc... If someone wants a cheaper car? Hell ya can get a low kms Ba 2 xr6 for like 10-14k? hello!!! Australian 2nd hand cars kick ***.... ie my au xr8 sure its 6.5 yrs old now still looks kick ***.. im under 100k still, with the little work ive done it still keeps up with ba xr8's and will go strong for about another 200k.
All foreign cars should be banned.. or put on hiadis for 5yrs till Australian manufactures recover..... And maybe new models release every 3- 5yrs and less varients of the same car.... ie GT, GT-P, GT-E to help with resales etc, manufacturing costs bla bla bla ;)
