I see that the Cooper D was 10th best-selling eco-friendly car in the UK last year, according to this:

The best-selling CO2 busters*

Make/model Engines Sales (2007)
Peugeot 107 1.0 petrol 15,333
Ford Fiesta 1.4 diesel 14,784
Toyota Aygo 1.0 petrol 14,172
Citroen C1 1.0 petrol, 1.4 diesel 12,626
Peugeot 207 1.4 diesel, 1.6 diesel 11,830
Toyota Prius 1.5 petrol 8,755
Renault Clio 1.5 diesel 5,230
Toyota Yaris 1.4 diesel 5,173
Volkswagen Polo 1.4 diesel 4,436
MINI Cooper D 1.6 diesel 4,192

What surprises me, I would have thought there were a lot more Dooper sales than that in the UK for the whole of 2007?

Ahh well maybe they will sell more after the "Green Budget" tomorrow. Have my doubts how much of an incentive (if any) we will get reading up on the predictions in the motoring and online press.

appmacguy · Mar 12th, 2008, 10:42 AM

Will be interesting to see the 2008 figures ! As the start/stop model was introducet mid 2007 - with better milage and lower Co2 emissions.

airbusA346 · Mar 12th, 2008, 12:52 PM

When is the budget announced?

EDIT: it is on now.

sav112 · Mar 12th, 2008, 06:30 PM

Not a great number there! From my view point I wanted it high as I’m going down the second had route for my D. I was going with a split new one but many have swayed me to wait especially concerning the Mini and its truth be told far to expensive price tag. Plus it’s not great seeing a Mini and a Z4 side by side and the Mini costing more like I seen yesterday.
