French loyalty - No More - type's'
For the first time ever foreign cars have outsold French cars in France.
Peugout, Citreon and Renault cars accounted for 48.7% of the market with foreign makes making up the rest.

Toyota had the biggest increase (and they do have a yaris factory in France I believe) in sales from last year and seem to continue their record of continully increasing sales in most countries.

Just for the record - Honda were not mentioned and VW were also up 5.7%.
Well done VW and boo-yah-sucks Honda.

(The last sentence is my attempt to balance my views between Honda and VW - as I keep being told to do)
