Yeah as Davway said. I saw a 08 Accord today with a CC Holden Numberplate garnish. The bloke just bought the Accord at the Holden dealer, probably cheaper than than through Honda dealers. No Biggy.

Yep Second that. Same as ZUPPS in QLD. Seen a couple of Fords with the Zupps Holden sticker/Numberplate surround. Not uncommon.

Yes, obviously if it was secondhand I could understand but it was like a brand new car . So I could get finance from any car company to purchase another branded new car ?

The finance companies are not the same as the vehicle manufacturers. Often they are just a branding of another bank/finance company product.

I have bought two new Nissans on Ford Credit over the years.
