Automotive changes
Thank you for reverting some of 82.42.151.164's changes. I found many errors with them, too, although I must say the user's Belgian, Swiss and Dutch information is quite useful. Stombs 05:54, Jan 1, 2005 (UTC)
Are you sure that photo of the Ford Activa is a 1990? It looks an awful lot like a 2000 or newer Mazda Protege... Oh, and welcome to Wikipedia! --SFoskett 04:16, Jan 6, 2005 (UTC)
- Good thoughts on the Opel/GM thing. I think we should use "Opel" since that's the "master" version of the cars, and since the "General Motors Astra" doesn't exist... But welcome to the auto-nut fold! --SFoskett 14:20, Jan 10, 2005 (UTC)
Holden Zafira
I am 100 per cent certain about the Zafira having been officially sold in New Zealand and having witnessed many on the roads. I'm not sure why you have never seen them on the local site though I recall at one time it was not updated properly. I went in once to look for a certain model that had been launched and it wasn't there.
One user (not me) made an early edit of the Holden page indicating that the Zafira was available in New Zealand, too, so I am not alone.
Here is a reasonably authoritative New Zealand page where the Zafira is road-tested: http://xtramsn.co.nz/motoring/0,,6429-1355700,00.html. It had a retail price of $39,990 in 2002. Stombs 08:55, Jan 11, 2005 (UTC)
Ford Sierras in Brazil
You are right: they weren't Brazilian, but Argentinian (source: World Cars and Auto Katalog). Slight confusion, though this may have been caused by a contemporary American report about Brazilian imports, which was obviously wrong. I'll make the changes. Stombs 08:55, Jan 11, 2005 (UTC)
