    Thought as much. I've just bought a new VXR for myself as I thought the recession would be the end of them in New Zealand. I've only seen one VXR here and it is in my garage. It's a pity really, as that will be the last Holden that I will buy.

    Yes, the VXR is amazing, a totally awesome machine. I've wanted one since seeing the arden blue one at the melbourne motorshow in 2008.

    Manged to get 30% discount off the list price so decided it was now or never!

    We won't know for sure until all the dust settles with what's going on ATM with the GFC and all the shuffling around of what was the GM group of companies...

    Depending on that outcome, we may see the new Astra model come down under - the Astra name has been a top if not the top small-medium class seller for Holden for years, I can't see them dropping it all together if thay can help it...

    It could end up being a Daewoo model, either way I can't see GMH giving up or replacing the Astra name, unlike what they did with the Calibra or are doing with the Vectra, but those 2 never did one bit as well as the Astra...
