Here's Ford's for 2007...

http://www.theautochannel.com/news/2...10/074804.html

And here's Chrysler's for 2007...

Quote:
Chrysler sales in Europe decreased five percent year-to-date (72,539 units), while July sales decreased 26 percent (7,855 units).
http://www.theautochannel.com/news/2...07/095703.html

Basically, GM led both automakers in sales in Europe for 2007.

Ford's European offereings are pretty bada$$... and their Australian offerings are just plain nuts... compared to their North American products, Ford's Euro models are better in every way.

That's true^. I saw a review of the Falcon from austrailia and they offer
a twin turbo V6 or a 5.4 liter v8. Both put out around 400 hp I think. Crazy.

Also, ass far as I know in the UK, the Mondeo was a hugely popular car a few years ago. Still is to a degree.

The european market seems to like smaller cars. As such, most chryslers are a tough sell. The ones based on Mitsubishis might be a different story.

Last time I checked, GM was the sales leader in every market except Japan where imports (to them) account for ~4%.

Because Japan caps the number of cars imported.

Which we should totally do as well. Not so funny when the tables are turned, eh toyota?
