Surely the amount of cars sold has to be linked to the price, age and make of the vechicle.Can't imagine a luxury car yard selling 30 cars a month out of a stock of 70 units!

Must be in some way, plus the margin on the average Ferrari would be somewhat higher then the average imported Nissan/Mazda etc
Hi SilverBack, done a bit of googling and the average number of sales a car sales consultant does seemed to be 10 a month.
On Turners website it shows 2 people working at the Wellington car yard, according to Tod the yard sells 30 cars a month. If they indeed only employ 2 people at this branch then the sales numbers are impressive.
Thanks for doing the hard yards Forest. Probably need to cut Todd's comment in two to get close to the reality (he runs a cars sales company after all) but seems even so to be a reasonable level of activity.
A few decades ago, I knew a guy who was used car sales manager for a franchise in the Wellington region. It was a a significant franchise. He became very depressed one year when they only sold 4 cars in a month. His worst result ever. This was in a Government induced recession. I think this acts as a lower bound. I cannot tell you how many sales staff he had.
