In smaller markets, changes are usually more dramatic. Certainly this applies to Estonia for the last year. Sales were up over 65%, and the rankings moved drastically too. I have included 2010 rankings to show where the movement was. Sales are well down on the 2007 peak of 31,400 but the best in the last three years.

Toyota has been top since 2004, before that Peugeot for three years, then various other brands, so change is normal in the Estonian market. Skoda has not been top before, and I find it surprising a make with such a limited range of cars to do so well.
My guess: Things will continue improving here.
