Manufacturer Skoda has been able to establish a new UK sales benchmark for the brand in the first six months of 2010.
The company has shifted 23,248 vehicles in Britain in the first half of the year, representing a 61 per cent increase on the corresponding period of 2009 and the most successful six months in Skoda's history.
It stated that demand for all of its models has seen a major increase in 2010 even after the end of the scrappage scheme, which means the company is now on course for its best year ever.
Robert Hazelwood, Skoda's UK director, said this is a testament to the value for money its vehicles provide, as well as the high standard of service offered by its dealerships.
He added: "Award-winning cars like the recently-launched Superb Estate, Yeti and facelifted Fabia and Roomster have helped us to attract more customers than ever before."
Last month, the company launched the new Skoda Fabia Greenline II in the UK, which it describes as the most environmentally-friendly car it has ever produced.
