2008 New VW Retail Sales Results via Vfacts - Jan

[Timbo]

Jetta numbers are surprisingly low

[anthony]

During December VW had a promotion on Jettas with drive away deals.
They had their best ever month in Australia with almost 700 deliveries during the month,and by January stocks had sold out.It even outsold the Golf during this very sucessful promotion.
No Jettas at Melbourne dealerships to be seen,or in Geelong.
A few cars arriving in February,and sales should shoot up again by March.
It is a pity that stocks are so slow,as people are having to wait for their new cars.And now only good deals on Polos and some Golfs.
I had to wait a month for my Silver 2.o FSI auto Jetta.
It was well worth the wait after an Astra Olympic Edition.

Thanks Ben, the free on-roads in Feb for Polo has made a difference!

[THR]

I accounted for one Golf in Feb.

March figures are up

sad to see that the Polo dropped back ...

I had hoped that people in this country would have finally had their wake-up call and decided to buy nicer looking and more individual cars than the bloody Yaris.

Just imagine you've got a mate who's got one of those ... you think you are seeing him at every corner ...

Thanks for the figures Phaeton,good to see the positive figures of most of the models.

May figures up

New entrants are Tiguan [111] and Caravelle [18], Kombi and Kombi Beach have been dropped from the range most likely due to slow sales.

June sales added

Tiguan is doing well
