    The general public won't.
    With the full parts and service backing from Holden along with incredibly sharp runout pricing, if people were smart they would jump at it. It certainly didn't put off myself, my dad or my uncle getting our Astra OPC's post announcement.

    Problem is the general public as a whole are stupid...oh well it's their loss I suppose :-)

    Crappy Korean MPVs, well the Hyundai iMax definitely falls into that category, given it's pretty much like my lawn ornament, just with extra seats. Hell, I'd buy a Zafira, strip the rear seats out and use that for work in an instant if it meant getting out of the iLoad.

    The general public doesn't work at Holden and isn't privy to most information either.

    Guarantee if you asked a hundred randoms on the street if they knew that Opel where in Australia, left in 11 months and where now backed by Holden maybe 3 if you where lucky would know.

    I see your one eyed point to it all, but like I said the general public won't buy a car from a company that couldn't give a shit about this countrys car market
