Question about nationality[edit]

why does the article says this is an English company, should it not say an American (although perhaps now French?) company's factory in England. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.141.79.239 (talk) 15:48, 6 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The subject of this article is General Motors UK Limited, an English registered company that trades as Vauxhall Motors. The company may be owned by a US or French company, but that doesn't change it's own nationality. -- de Facto (talk). 21:18, 6 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Intro, second sentence: "It is a subsidiary of the German company Opel Automobile GmbH". The next sentence, first of second para, is "In March 2017 GM agreed to sell its interests". Nothing was said about GM before that, you sort of have to think through Opel to GM. Or go down farther. I am US, though, not UK. Sammy D III (talk) 18:07, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No, just because a parent company is from a different country, it does not make the brand in question that nationality. 2A00:23C5:2F2F:9401:B486:36C7:C933:2928 (talk) 20:47, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

History[edit]

I propose it would be worth having a separate section for the history of the company/brand, given the number of different owners of Vauxhall over the years. This would be separate from the existing "History" section which is about the actual vehicles produced. 95.150.59.185 (talk) 11:34, 11 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
