Thanks Matt! You and your team have done such a great job!
Why not top 100? Regards
Hi NismoBoy,
In the Gulf Cooperation Council region I only track models that sell above 10 units a month in at least one country. Going outside the Top 50 for Bahrain would result in erroneous rankings based on this.
Hope you’ll understand.
cheers
Matt
