Just as we’re enjoying our week-long test in Volkswagen’s latest seventh-generation Golf, they’ve just announced their claim on the sales charts for January. Volkswagen Ireland came out on top of the sales charts with 2,137 registrations, giving them a 12.37 per cent market share. Commenting on the announcement Paul Burke, Operations Director for Volkswagen Ireland said, “We are delighted with the strong start to 2013, which continues the momentum from last year. The level of interest in all our model range plus our 3 Offer is very strong. In addition, the new Golf has been in huge demand since launch and we expect sales to increase further as supply improves. At the moment we are selling every car we can get our hands on.”
