Sales here were up 4.4% in 2016, the best since 2008. Finding data is not easy for this nation and some of the smaller brands I have gaps in historical sales. Dacia won the year, but with a reduced margin. It's now been top since 2013. VW back in 2012 but finds itself ninth this year.
In the chart below, pale yellow represents a reduction in registrations, pale blue is increase but lost market share. Green is for those exceeding the market growth and finally the salmon colour for those with over 100% increase.
