They’ll possibly turn it to their favour by using the debt as a handy little tax write-off either here or in the U.S.

I wonder what all the Holden fans that bagged out Ford over the years are going to say after Ford stops manufacturing here, when they find out that there so called Australian car has less Australian made parts then a local built Toyota Camry. I find that ******* hilarious knowing that!!! Holden less Australian then a Toyota Camry haha

WHAAAAT......"it's a case of waiting for the closures and seeing who tumbles further". Just aswell your not running Holden or their current setup would probably leave them in more then the allready half a BILLION in dept. so WHOS doing it better again???? "Ford winning the sales to the bottom" ......of what?......the pile of companies with less debt!

Seriously........people just don't get economics!

Quite simply, they dont care. To them even a Captiva is more australian than a Territory. Thats over 60 years of marketing for you...

You obviously dont know the difference between a debt and a financial loss. A debt is money which is borrowed and needs to be paid back. The majority of Holden's losses stem from factors such as asset writedowns and redundancy payouts. They are paper losses which are used as tax writeoffs. They are not 'debts'.

You are the one who clearly has no idea and your posts are cringeworthy and painful to read.

Wow did you have fun jumping on the debt word. As if that particular word was even the specific topic. I'm sure everyone knows what I mean, but it doesn't have to be spelled out everytime.
The point is the big numbers are twice as harsh for the red team as they are for the blue team.....despite everyone thinking the opposite because so sales figures.

I'm not sure your post was warranted and it's clearly a personal attack, as you know from other threads, I made you fully aware of what these big loss breakdowns were and where they come from......

Maybe you could explain why ford is selling far less and has such a bad name(around here at least) yet the figures point to them in far less trouble as it winds down.
I'd appreciate that!
