Fair call, but when Holden was at the top of its game it wasnt because it was flogging off record numbers of imports but because they produced a vehicle which Australians wanted and Australia still had a little pride in which its fellow man could produce.
That is but a distant memory and it now competes on a level playing field with every other importer.
The issue i see every month is that certain people make it sound as though holden should still be dominating the market and when they arent its considered a failure and opportunity to gloat.
The truth is, Australia is overrun with choice and with manufacturers who 20 years ago wouldnt have been taken seriously, now commanding a second look, the mighty have fallen, its not just Holden at risk though...
