Rex Toops was the longest serving Holden Dealer in Australia when he retired and closed down in 2002.
Today there is only 1 Dealership in Town, Peninsula Toyota which is owned and operated by the Gunning family who closed down their Ford Dealership to make way for Toyota around 10 years ago.
Gunnings also sell Toyota, Nissan Kia and Isuzu from their Kadina premisis which too was a former Ford Dealership.

And this is the way it's done, Toyota as primary franchise plus the others for good measure,
choices and no bad blood, a winning combination...and good on them.
