Types of car
This table describes the different specifications of five types of car. It gives details of price, country of origin, engine capacity and fuel consumption.
Clearly, the most expensive of the four is the Volkswagen Golf. There is very little to choose between the other three. The German Volkswagen has the biggest engine at 1600cc. The Japanese Toyota Corolla and the American Ford Focus both have a capacity of 1400cc, with the Japanese Nissan Micra being the smallest in engine size with 1200cc. Not surprisingly, the smallest, the Micra, is the most economical in terms of fuel consumption and the Volkswagen the least so. Both the Ford and the Toyota are between the other two, and very similar in terms of fuel consumption.
As you'd expect, the biggest car, in terms of engine size, is the most expensive and uses most fuel, while the smallest, the Micra, is the cheapest in terms of both price and fuel costs.

Proportion of Population over 65 & under 25 in 2007
The bar graph shows the proportion of the population over 65 and under 25 in six countries in 2007.
The proportion over 65 was highest in Spain, at nearly 40%, followed closely by France and then Wales. The country with the smallest proportion of the population over 65 was Egypt, with 20%. France and Sain had the lowest proportion under 25, both with about 20%. The country with the highest proportion, over 40%, of people under 25 was Egypt, closely followed by Tunisia. In third and fourth place were Wales and Turkey. One interesting fact is that Turkey had exactly the same proportion over 65 as under 25.
In summary, Wales was the only European country with a higher proportion of younger people than older. Egypt and Tunisia had the highest proportions of younger people, while Spain and France had the highest proportions of older folk.

Number of Dubai hotel guests 1993-2002
These two charts, one bar and one pie, show us the number of Dubai hotel guests 1993-2002.
Until 2001, there were no significant numbers of guests from Australia and the Pacific. Even in 2002, they accounted for less than 2% of the total. Over the period, the total number of hotel guests increased gradually from around 1M to over 4M. The number from each region, Europe, Asia, other GCC, other Arab, the UAE, Africa and America, also rose steadily. By 2002 over a quarter of hotel guests came from Europe. Over a fifth came from Asia, followed by other GCC with 20%. Just over 10% came from other Arab countries, with just over 6% from both the UAE and Africa. Guests from America comprised about 5% of the total
In conclusion, both the total number, and the numbers from each region, increased steadily 1993-2002.
