Short answer is no.
only brands like ford that had guarantee buy back, Holden with garrateed used car ,Landrover BMW and Nissan
advertised the new car sales depend on used car market.
mostly vehicles in the lease market like discovery, prado and Nissan maxima depend on used car market.
Every few years people with PHD look at this and make very different comments. The more recent comments in 20 years has been to reduce the fleet age to at all costs because if the fleet is new GDP will increase--If you can explain this feel free..
Plenty of brands in Australia that put out media releases. Often find this in boring share market and financial reports headlines. last one I read was when Nissan and mitsubishi stopped building cars and made more turnover due to the restructure.
when I was an apprentise my job included cleaning out garbage bins and destroying files. GM would put out boxes of dealer directives on what to say or do and have economic breakdowns on benifits of radio options or mirrors in the glove box. I cant see 2014 being different.
