Buttner was (apparently) given the choice of vehicles available to him in RHD, I don't think he added to what they were already (not) selling, their products are ok on there own but slide down the ladder when it comes to comparing to established 4x4/ SUVs, I bet Buttner was informed of the demise of the Commodore/Astra last week and then called it quits as the products that will be left for sale aren't selling- Fords tie-up with VW will see some groundbreakers in their Ranger/Amarok vehicles and all built RHD. I think the next step for Holden is goodbye altogether and by the end of next year I doubt that there will be many Holden dealers left to sell what's left.
