    Holdens selling remaining Opel stock....

    There has been influx of Opels on Carsales - but these are been sold by Holdens:-
    From what I can figure:-
    • Gibbons Holden in WA
    • Northside Holden in NSW
    • Performance Automobiles in Hobart

    Interesting read. I hope Holden manage to sell a good range of them here. Not only because were are an Opel forum but because it would mean bringing back some class to their range. With the exception of the vf Commodore there really isn't anything Holden is selling that is appealing to anyone that knows a little about cars.
    Not to mention the Opel products look that much better.

    One wonders if that should not have been the plan all along !

    At least something good may come out of Opel`s short term foray in Australia.

    Apparently not. You'd think they'd pick someone who aren't a bunch of tossers too.

    to rebadge them and sell them as holdens would probably make it more viable. or even selling a few of them through holden dealers however i think the opel name has been damaged considering they were here for 11 month and pulled out. people will remember that

    Living north of Adelaide I'm already half way to Gawler, so in some respects more convenient for me, but clearly not for most.
