Ann: Appendix 4D and Interim Financial Report, page-71

I wrote to Chris last week and got a response very quickly. Basically saying disappointed with share price but people were missing the big picture, the half yearly result could have "looked" better with less spending on the business but the board are working on a long term plan not short term good looks.

He referred to the stability of the top 20 as being a sign of strong support. With regard to the Peugots he said they have to be very confident in the cars coming on line in a timely fashion for them to announce it to the market. This was in reference to me asking about the lack of Subarus after the announcement nearly 6 months ago.

That being said its March and last time I looked the Peugots weren't available and when I asked online chat DMC the response was " no date confirmed".

Short term frustration only I feel still, long term there is no change and the business will prove itself. Some public reassurance from Chris would smooth a few worries holders though.
