Looked like Toyota would be number one selling car in AUS in 3-4 years, followed by Ford and then Holden.

Adam Here since the start... Lifetime Members 10,282 Member For: 22y 1m 15d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Posted 22/11/10 08:53 AM Share Posted 22/11/10 08:53 AM I think a lot of it comes down to the massive spread of models they have. It's certainly not because their servicing prices are low!
