French and Spanish car sales plunge in October | Reuters: "French and Spanish car sales plunged in October as Spain continued to suffer from the end of a scrappage scheme and France's reduced subsidy was not enough to prevent a drop versus the strong sales this time last year.
The subsidies launched to encourage drivers to trade in old cars were highly successful but carmakers are now facing tough comparisons with the booming sales last year when schemes boosted sales."
