Aug 10, 2009 - Mr. Bean To The Rescue

Aug. 7 (Bloomberg) -- Bayerische Motoren Werke AG said it delivered 109,923 vehicles in July, 13 percent less than in the same period a year before. BMW saw a 0.3 percent increase in sales of its Mini-branded cars, whilst Rolls-Royce vehicle sales fell 56 percent.

“Over the course of the next months we will see BMW Group sales continue their gradual upward trend,” said Ian Robertson, BMW’s sales chief, in an e-mailed statement today. “I am confident we will continue to expand our market position in the premium segment for 2009 as a whole and be able to maintain our position as leading premium manufacturer.”

Now there's an optimist for you. Sales down 13% from a year ago and the MINI brand up a MINI 0.3% and he's talking about BMW continuing a "gradual upward trend".
