Sure.

Astra is down 1100, Viva 500, there's minus 1600 for Holden. So Cruze has taken up the slack with some cream on top. Most it's sales are from Astra and Viva customers, may even have picked up the 100 Epica customers that left as well.

I don't see the big gains for Cruze yet, when 80-90% of sales for Cruze can be explained in Astra and Viva phasing out, they just went to Cruze.
