10/01/2008

It appears that the current global financial concerns have far from deterred consumers from buying luxury cars as BMW Group reported its best ever sales for all three of its brands — BMW, Rolls Royce, and Mini — with Rolls Royce leading the way.

The group delivered 1,500,678 vehicles worldwide during the year, up 9.2% on the 1,373,970 reported in 2006. This figure was boosted significantly by a massive 25.5% increase in sales of Roll Royce models, which saw the brand deliver in excess of 1,000 vehicles for the first time, as well as a 7.7% rise in BMW sales.
