All-new old sales figures!
It’s all change for 2008 … MINI USA has changed their press reporting of sales figures, now showing just a monthly total for “hardtop”, “convertible” and “clubman” variants and no longer distinguishing MC / MCS / etc … So I’ve had to change my MINI sales figures web page to match.
One number that immediately jumps out in the new simpler format, is the drop in sales for the convertible (2006, 2007), after a peak in 2005 - I would guess that it’s due to increase convertible competition in the same price range:
YEAR Hardtop Convertible Totals
2002 24,590 24,590
2003 36,010 36,010
2004 31.395 4,637 36,032
2005 29,118 11,702 40,820
2006 29,363 9,808 39,171
2007 34,247 7,798 42,045
2008 2,157 303 2,460
TOTALS 186,880 34,248 221,128
