Vauxhall Loss
In spite of record export earnings of sl64m in 1969, the Vauxhall company showed a net loss of more than s4m after tax last year. The loss was the company’s second since 1930, and the worst financial result in its history. In 1968 it had a net profit of $10.6m. The company’s chairman and managing director (Mr D. Hegland), said the loss was caused by restrictions in home-market car sales, rising costs and labour disputes.
