Default ACCC chaos theory

As I am sure most are aware new legislation means RRP can’t be displayed on new cars. People that frequent sale sites like "carsales" will have noticed that the pricing of many new cars has been replaced by POA. (Price on application)

Many car companies are redirecting enquiries made of them to dealerships in respective states, (on road costs vary) causing confusion and sending a troubled industry into more disarray.

It’s the lead story in this week’s Go Auto news and has made headlines across the net over the last few days.

The biggest change now seems to be that dealerships feel they are breaking the law by advertising driveway specials for their own state when the potential buyer could be from interstate.

Then you have Toyota, who has a different take on the legislation and reaction to it.
