I don't believe that for a second. The market is far too segmented. Trends change and our local product got left without a chair when the music stopped.
Also govt policy ruled out Aussie cars for govt vehicles due to tighter emissions targets. This probably hurt more than Joe public not buying.
You need protections in place from the govt esp in a global market.
