Slump hits Bentley car production

Bentley's sales have been hurt by the slowing economy
Some 1,400 of Crewe-based carmaker Bentley's 4,000 strong staff are
going down to a three-day week.

The Volkswagen subsidiary blamed the cut in production on the economic
slowdown and falling sales.

The luxury car maker says there has been a 16%% fall in global sales in
the year-to-date, with demand dropping the most in the US market.

I think I heard 40%% in America . . .
