With the Opel/Vauxhall-situtation the most Germans aren't or convinced or satisfied. The deal with Magna-Steyr and the Russian Sberbank is not fixed and nearly all risks are hanging on the German taxpayers. It's not clear, that a insolvence will not happend. The people are just happy, that Opel has left GM 2 days before its insolvency.
@marioman: they liked it (by the few hours, they had time for), but their favourite is Sydney.
Me and my wife had planned to make a big Australia-tour, driving with a rental pick-up across the country and staying at farms with B&B, but then we had bought a house and have spent our money for that...
My wife really envyes her Australian colleagues. She works for the German dependance of the French insurance-company AXA - have you noticed the place, where the AXA-office in Sydney is located? Directly at the harbour-front, close to the Opera, with view on the Harbour Bridge. As we've heard, it's usal for the employees there, to go surfing during their lunchtime...
This really causes heavy-envy-attacs.

I really would like to have it, but my parents-in-law, who hade made a big cruise half around Australia in Jan and Feb, haven't found it. They really have looked in every harbour, in Sydney, Melbourne, Hobart, Adelaide and Perth, but no shop had it.
As far as I know, Holden will reamian. The Commodore (also the Caprice and Statesmen) are our own chassis/body/engine, so the that will remain (it is the biggest seller O/S)
For the Astra, Viva, Barina, etc. I don't know. Lets hope they stay
I wonder how much the car company is? I my buy one!!!
