Holden dont really give a toss about manufacturing a car in OZ. If they did they would have likely spent 1 billion dollars developing a mid size 4 cylinder instead.
At the beginning of October Holden had 2 weeks shutdown, the shortfall of that was so did we (Walker Aus) and holden only sold just over 600 cars total in that fortnight!
Its funny because they were going to cut production next year by 200 odd cars, but instead they are now still going to make 600+ cars a day, but work less days a week.
Spare a thought for the people like myself who work in the OE parts supply area when Holden decide they only want to work 3-4 days a week. I can't see myself working a full 5 day week for the first 3-6 months of next year.
How good is that going to be for my pay packet??
