    Paul, i noticed there’s a number of (offical?) dealers for VW… Euromobil, VW Cars, and another? i cant remember?

    so, is VW cars like d main distributor and d rest are, ermm, its ’subsidaries’?

    Im thinkin like BMW, there’s BMW Malaysia, which imports or arrange d CKDs and then get Auto Bavaria & Cartrade to distribute em.. tht it?

    just curious.. heh

    What happens to MOFAZ after this. Mofaz is the highest importer of VW right? With P1, this will then proove MOFAZ irrelevant.

    oh dude… VW Cars is actually owned by Cartrade. That’s why mushrooming in town in such a fast pace compare to other dealers, i.e. Mofaz, Wearness Automotive, etc. VW Cars actually utilised the vacants left after its termination from being a BMW dealer.
