Be careful, a lot of those "fleet" sales are actually user chooser novated leases

roughly the same number of mid and high series cars but then goes on to add
Omega sales as well. Ford needs to reconnect with fleet managers and a
reemergence of a new base model with 6-speed auto could do that.

While I'm disappointed with sales of falcons, I can understand that Ford is about to
go after fleets again so it will be interesting to see how all of this pans out..

Again look at the numbers porperly!!

Analysis of numbers is what I'm paid to do!!
Then you would know that the FG didn't launch until April 2008
and the figures you're comparing are dying last quarter of BF II.

A good result for FG compared to BF II but the low numbers in a bumper month are concerning...
