Thanks to Luka I can now update the Croatian models ranking with actuals. Third consecutive month below 2,000 new car registrations in Croatia: October is down a horrid 36% year-on-year to 1,997 units, bringing the year-to-date total to 28,398 sales, down 21% on 2011. For the first time, the Peugeot 208 takes the lead  thanks to 74 sales and 3.7%, making Croatia the third country in the world after France and Portugal to crown the 208 in a monthly ranking. The Opel Astra ranks #2 at 3.4% but leads the year-to-date ranking with 1,143 units and 4%.

Kia Rio

The Kia Rio is up a further one spot to land at a record third place with 62 sales and 3.1%. The VW Polo is up 4 ranks to #4 and the Citroen C4 down 2 to #5. The Renault Megane is up 9 spots to #7, the Ford Fiesta up 14 to #8, the VW Passat up 8 to #13 and the Skoda Fabia up 6 to #14.
