RECREATION: AUTOMOBILES

List: Top Ten Bestselling Cars in the World

Date: As of December 2005

Source: The Sunday Times from manufacturer figures.

Base: All single versions (* see note below) of production cars.

Notes: This list only includes single versions of car models - that is to say models that have remained unaltered in design. Therefore the list does not include cars that have had makeovers, otherwise the Toyota Corolla (29 million sold), Toyota Camry and Ford Mustang (10 million sales) would have made the list. The Fiat 124 / Lada, the Fiat Uno and the VW Golf Mk1 are still in production as of publication of this list.
