    All cars depreciate playwme, none make money anymore. Unless you have invested in an original Bathurst car.

    Let someone else take the major depreciation knock (typically ex-fleet).
    Thats ok if you dont own a business but smart business people buy brand new for a reason so they can depreciate as much as possible and get the gst back straight away

    Reading between the lines, which isnt hard in that article, it looks to me that they're putting wheels in motion of cutting back and downsizing.

    I'd like to see what his company car will be now. From a new HSV daily drive to a motorhome??!!
