Skoda Auto Sales in Australia via vfacts

[VAG newbie]

609 for the month according to Courier Mail Cars Guide from last Saturday. No breakdown.

Fantastic figures!!!

That's really good! Assuming sales figure are similar for other manufacturer with the recent months, this should make Skoda into top 20, exceeding sales of some of the well established brand like Volvo, Lexus and Peugeot! Would be nice to know how it ranks though.

Anyway, been seeing Skodas a lot more frequently on the road now. But I must admit, 99% of them are still Octavias. Occasional Superb. haven't seen Yeti or Fabias on the road yet....(that is in Brisbane south)

If I recall correctly that figure put them in 20th position. Well ahead of Peugeot 440ish, Renault 410ish and Volvo 400ish.

A very solid performance.

Any feedback from the naysayers?

wow, they've left the french way behind by the looks, and probably won't be long before Audi's in the rear view as well ..

[Brycem]

654 skodas sold last month giving an annual total of 3501. In my view a terrific end to the year and a great overall result.

Was driving through the CBD on Sunday, saw a basic-level Fabia, a white Superb sedan, a blue vRS wagon and a blue vRS sedan.
Here's me in MY blue vRS sedan going "OMG MOAR vRS's" and pointing frantically, the girlfriend in the passengers seat just rolling her eyes.

[bluefrog]

haha, and here you thought they were all in Melbourne .. I was astounded to see them everywhere in Canberra as well.

my kids are all trained up to spot em, pretty good at it too, hehe

[Mysticality]

Yes, yes, yes... I retract my previous statement. :p
Although, all of the forum-goers are from Melbourne.
Actually, there is a white and a grey one in my area too. >.<
