The A2 features in this week's AutoExpress rag yet again... BUT this time on page 38 under: "Top of the Flops: We count the UK's greatest motoring sales failures, from 50 to 1..."
And A2 stands at 40 (how they decided on where current cars sit I don't understand really... and number 1 is not a car with 3 sales either... it's the AMC Pacer with 200 sales, 2 is the MAzda MPV with 2100 and 5 a Caterham with 100 sales... I ask you how scientific is that!)
But anyway: A2 at 40 with 11500 units sold since 2000 and their quote:
THE first Audi supermini is certainly striking, and with an aluminium body and lots of kit, it's a technological tour de force. But priced from £13000, it's too costly for most small car buyers.
...and why I ask does that make it a sales flop?
