Apologies for taking so long to post up the Performance Model Breakdown but I've been on leave. Back into the groove now after getting through the 400+ emails.

There was also an error in the VW Golf numbers going back to August so I've corrected those.

Thanks for adding the model breakdown.

Ouch for the MPS!

[duglet]

a new colour (WHITE) would help the sales of the MPS...

They seriously need to ditch that blue...

Happy Motoring

Yeah ouch for the MPS, I think Doug's right a new colour would lift sales and maybe series II updates?

VW had about 1/2 dozen boats arrive Nov/Dec so there were several truck loads of new Golf GTI's and R's that people had ordered in June/July hitting the roads in December!!!

[Nirvandan]

I think also the color change would help but sales would still look rather poor againt the likes of WRX and XR5, forget about VW they are just too far ahead.

[duglet]

XR5 is in run out...and ppl are snapping them up..becoz they dont want the new 4cyl eco boost ugly model..

Happy Motoring

Craig, do you know if the XR6T, XR8, SS etc are included in the performance car sales, would be interesting to see the comparison!

Also Mazda need to kickstart the MPS 3 sales with something enticing
