    $13990+orc for the base 3 door manual, and the additional $1000 on the other respective models also.

    Anything higher and I'll be laughing.

    So they're not gonna be that much better off financially than when they were selling the Opel sourced Barina. Considering that's the reason they dropped the Opel Corsa and opted for the Daewoo Kalos. Now they'll be selling a car almost the same price as the Opel and a car that doesn't even come close to the Opel. Smart move that! Maybe if the price increases too much, sales will drop and Holden will again one day return the Corsa to our shores, doubtful but you can dream.

    The reason they dumped the Opel wasn't because just because the price they were selling.

    At the pricie they were selling it at they lost money on every single one.

    A Opel sold at full price got the dealer a margin of $250 plus dealer delivery.

    A Daewoo Barina sold at full price gets the dealer $1000 plus dealer delivery.

    Which would you rather sell?


    The price rise is $500 on HATCHES ONLY, it does not affect sedan's.
    Takes place APRIL 2nd.

    Astra MY6.5 has been announced, spec wise, but not price wise, read threat in ASTRA board to see updates
