From the looks of this the volume of sales doubled from July to August. I know the numbers are still small but that is exceptional in anyone's terms, i think by Jan 2010 this product will be doing 4-500 units a month Australia wide. Once the Fabia (still a question mark) and the Yeti arrive which again will happen first quarter 2010 the product will explode like VW did. T

There's a big future here i think!!!

Does anyone know what changed in August????

At a guess, i'd say a RORO docked at several ports in Australia.

I'm thinking there were an awful lot of people with cars on order.

So how does a Superb that has only been on the market for 4-5 months have a statistically proven 3 year retained value?
In fact I thought Skoda had only been in Australia for around than 2 years anyway.
