Not to mention, if you needed a new car, and didnt care too much about being a brand snob, but could get an MG Tomorrow, versus a 6 month wait for the equivelant Hyundai/Kia/etc what would you do?
Correct and much in the same vein as Japan Inc looking after its own brands first.
Anytime an article uses 400% increase of sales per month instead of say, 1,200/mth
you can see the screaming narrative for what it is, much about nothing.
