Volkswagen celebrates selling over 200,000 cars in the UK for the first time.

Volkswagen has achieved a record sales milestone, having sold over 200,000 cars in the UK this year. 

Commenting on the achievement, Alex Smith, Director of Volkswagen Passenger Cars said: ‘Exceeding 200,000 car sales in one year is an achievement of which we’re extremely proud.  We have a great range of products, with a car to suit every need and taste, and the enduring appeal of the brand and its heritage have brought a record number of new customers to Volkswagen this year.’

The Volkswagen range extends from the multi-award-winning up! city car through the recently updated Polo, evergreen Golf, Passat and many other niches to the range-topping Touareg, Phaeton and XL1.  All cater for different requirements, but maintain Volkswagen’s key qualities of timeless style, safety, innovation and value for money.

Smith added: ‘We have great and diverse products, but we also have a great team of people – in the factory, head office and our retail network – who have worked together and contributed to the brand achieving this record.’
