These were the best-selling cars in October
Many firm favourites were in the top 10 list, though some newcomers made an appearance too.
New car registrations ‘held steady’ during October, as numbers rose by a modest five per cent to a total of 144,948 units during the month, according to figures from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT).
The top 10 list for the month is populated by a lot of familiar favourites, alongside some newcomers looking to shake things up. Let’s take a look at how things played out.
