Thank you! You are doing a great job, many people are grateful to you for it. I do not know what we would do without all of your blog
@matgasnier
MERCI!!!
@vavon
Now I’m at home (small laptop) and it’s back to the old style…
Maybe it’s just my computer…
Hi Vavon – have you tried emptying your cache and reloading the page? It should do the trick…
Cheers,
Matt
@matgasnier
Hi Matt, Just saw the changes… That looks much better! Great stuff as usual!
This post was a reply to bruno tonelli. Quoting didn’t work somehow
To compare we would need separate figures of focus hatch, focus sedan and focus station wagon, too.
As usual great job Matt!!
Congrats !
Thanks Andre
Glad you like it.
Cheers,
Matt
Great Job, Matt, as always. Thank you very much.
How are the the sales of the South-American 207 counted? Are they included with the European 207 or with the 206? And where does that leave the 206+? Or are they all counted separately?
By the way I have a remark about the new menu above the article. It seems to take up so much space, wouldn’t it be better to have it horizontal instead of vertical?
Or maybe even just a list with 5 bullets without the pictures.
Hi Vavon, sales of the South-American 207 are counted within the European 207 – weirdly. Might need to change that for 2013…
Cheers,
Matt
It would be interesting to know the total sales of Golf VI (without the other and older versions), of Jetta 6, of Passat VII and of Elantra V. In other words it would be interesting to know how these new models are actually selling compared to their competitors (such as Focus and Cruze). Nevertheless great work as ever, Matt!
