    Well whats the point in supplying if demand is not there. I wouldn't be surprised if a few garages started closing. Sad, but everyone is hanging onto their money at the moment.

    I agree but it doesn't help my mortgage!


    Time to start preparing the CV and attempt to stick it to one of the few jobs left out there methinks!


    That said I want Honda to stay in the UK so I guess it comes down to whatever it takes.

    The Decent Honda garage around here has gone into administration, as the car is due a service and was booked in there...

    Re: Honda ..... again!

    Inchcape in Essex 'consolidated' its Honda presence earlier this month, closing the Southend branch.

    Annoying really, as that is where I got my car from. Little bit crap to start with, but worked hard to make up for it

    Re: Honda ..... again!

    This is far better than making people redundant

    Poeple get to not have to spend money to travel to work for 80% of their pay.
    Unfortunately they will have to pay back this time off but at least there aren't a load of Honda employees looking forward to the dole queue.
