Spanish car sales fall by third
Spanish car sales fell almost a third last month, marking the fifth successive month of decline in Europe's fifth largest economy, underlining the growing gloom in global vehicle markets.
Spanish real retail sales fell 7.5% at constant prices, or 2.6% at current prices, in the 12 months to August, the National Statistics Institute said on Monday, overshooting the expected decline by 0.3 percentage points.
