Mazda UK Hit Record September Sales

Mazda UK Hit Record September Sales

T W White & Sons has helped Mazda UK report record sales for September. The team at the Surrey, South London & Kent based dealerships have contributed to Britain becoming the largest European market for Mazda in September, with a record sales volume of 11,372 and a market share of 3.0 percent. Private buyers are flocking to T W White & Sons thanks to excellent customer service and a fantastic product line-up.

The dealership's impressive performance has played a critical role in Mazda's ability to resist the downward trend.  Mazda's total of 11,372 sales in September is an increase of nearly 900 units (8.3%) over the previous highest month in March 2008 when the marque achieved sales of 10,497 units.  It is also the biggest single month for Mazda since the marque arrived in the UK back in the 1960's.

"These figures show that consumers are being driven towards Mazda thanks to its reputation for stylish cars, offering a great driving experience with high standard specification and outstanding reliability, all at an affordable price," explained Gordon Parker,  Mazda Franchise Manager at T W White & Sons.  "Mazda offers a highly competitive product range which has proved popular amongst increasingly savvy car buyers in Surrey, South London & Kent.  Offering impressively high levels of specification, fuel-efficiency and a thrilling drive, Mazda is particularly on trend with consumer needs."

"This has been a difficult year for the industry," said Jeremy Thomson, Managing Director Mazda UK.  "However, we have seen our retail share increase through the year, and this is the real test of popularity rather than just simple volume.  To put the September sales achievement into perspective it is just 4,488 sales short of the full year volume in 2001 when we took over the business.  Furthermore, we have sold more Mazda2s in September than we used to sell in a whole year with the old Mazda2."

"While this is a reason for celebration at Mazda we recognise that the recovery in the car industry is still fragile, we have to work hard to continue our success but we are aiming to finish the year as the third best year ever for Mazda in the UK."
