For marketing purposes as a german brand would not have sold too well after the WW2. This is how I'm been told about this.

[jg_bgt]

Ahhhh, righty always wondered that
cheers, now i can wow more people at the pub with motoring trivia!!!!

[quattronutter]

vauxhall are part of general motors which is american

[jg_bgt]

I think we were talking company starts....
Saab is part of GM as well, and Ford own Volvo but we wouldnt call them american even though the new volvo's IMO arent nearly as well built as the old one also the Service from volvo has deteriorated over the year, but which dealers havent.....

Wow thread overboard
@jase0851, sounds like a good swap to me, but i hate vauxhalls wherever they are from
