Bailout countries help fuel growth in European car sales

Car sales in Europe rose 6.1 percent in September, helped by strong demand in the region’s top markets of Germany, the UK and France, data from the Association of European Carmakers (ACEA) showed on Friday.

Growth of nearly 30 percent or more in Spain, Portugal and Greece, countries formerly hit by austerity, stoked demand for volume brands.
