New Caledonian info is now a bi-monthly thing on Best Selling Cars Blog and the Dacia Duster impresses over March/April with 82 sales, confirming the pole position it held in January/February. The Nissan Navara comes out of nowhere (or outside the Top 10) to land #2 over the period thanks to 64 units sold and is above the Ford Fiesta at 57 sales.

The Ford Ranger, #1 each year since 2009, is down to #4 at 53 units. The new generation arrives in July and should help the model reclaim at least a place on the podium, if not the top spot. Notice also the Peugeot 206+ very solid at #5 with 50 sales and #3 year-to-date at 101 units, and the Dongfeng Utah back inside the Top 10 for the first time since last August.
