I agree they had to change target clients but don't agree with your long term thought.
A huge percentage of the old cars are still on the road because of the simple construction. The new aluminium cars can't survive any form of accidental damage and are proving to be written off at the same rate as all modern aluminium cars. They can't be economically rebuilt. They just won't be around long term. They are properly modern..i.e short term...which may well be a good thing, I'm not putting a value judgement on this.
