I wonder when they have started to sell cars here. Even if they have started on January, it's 38 cars per month, more then one per day.

It was announced last August so I guess they started very early this year, although they have had a legal battle with a garage called "MG" which they have just won so there may be more information soon.

I see Peru sales are increasing, looks like they are on track to beat Chile this year!  They have a good range too, although they don't sell all of them today:
