I think the best way for you to prove that you were right and everyone is was wrong would have been to simply approach Holdens legal team and present the offending documents and then put your official reply from Holden here then I would have been gnawing on my Akubra.

Once again, with all due respect, it all appeared shrill.
Ahw shucks. I thought I made a fairly quick discourse on the idea that that the proponent of (a thing) can not be held to be responsible to the end result of (that thing). I used the most obvious and simple examples that came to mind, however I do take your point, perhaps not so polite of me, I hope I can restore that by apologising, peace on earth at this time.

Anyway, my intention earlier in this thread was to canvas opinion on whether somebody should approach Holden about this, and then a day or so after, still awaitng opinion, asked if anybody wanted to supply a contact, I suppose I am beginning to get an answer, however, I'd put that at about 50/50 atm. My approach, was to present my opinion and ask this site if anyone had approached Holden, as is evident in the thread.

So all good, I hope, but the idea a manufacturer would approve or ignore replication of its own documents by external parties for the means of making profit is um.... well not common.
