Amazing how much their sales have apparently changed, about 5 years ago 15% of their sales were in the UK.
Add in the rest of Europe and their EU sales must have been pretty large.

If their EU sales (which apparently increased 21% in 2017) are really only 4% of their business you can imagine they'll happily drop that whole market - and make the Jaguar etc. mistake of relying on the emerging markets.

Or is it that when talking about Europe he means EU without the UK and their sales are pitiful in the rest of the EU (which does have plenty of manufacturers)?
