Computing the number of cars of each model sent to Belgium as CKD involved several
steps. Below is an attempt to explain the steps. When a final number for a model and body
style combination is reached, it is given in red:
- Since CKDs were sent only to Belgium and Switzerland in model year 1966, we can derive
that 288 CKDs went to Belgium, given that we know 144 Swiss CKDs were produced (432 - 144
= 288)
- 144 of the Belgian CKDs were coupes, 144 were sedans, and 0
were convertibles (from option A16, once the 144 Swiss CKDs were subtracted; also from
Dave's article and summary stats table, where we find that none of the CKDs were
convertibles)
- 0 of the sedans were Corsas, since that model never existed
- 48 of the Belgian CKDs were 500s, 192 were Monzas, and 48 were Corsas (from option X28
and also from option U18, once the 144 Swiss CKDs were subtracted)
- All 48 of the Corsas must be coupes, since no CKD
convertibles were produced and there is no such thing as a Corsa sedan
- 96 of the Monzas must be coupes (from option D31, since
there were no Swiss CKD coupes)
- 0 of the coupes were 500s, since 48 of them have to be
Corsas and 96 have to be Monzas (48 + 96 = 144)
- 48 of the sedans must be 500s (from option W84, since none
of the Swiss CKDs were 500 sedans; can also be derived from option U18)
- 96 of the sedans must be Monzas, since the other 48 were
500s (144 - 48 = 96)
Quite a thought puzzle!
