Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/j6p7l7/australia_autos) has announced the addition of the "Australia Autos Report Q1 2013" report to their offering. In November 2012, the Australian auto industry was shocked by the news that leading local auto parts maker Autodom had been placed into voluntary administration as it sought a drastic restructuring of its loss-making business.
