I’ve no knowledge and only my one recent experience to judge by but this surprises me.
I’ve had company cars for 40 years. Buying a car at retirement was a nervy experience, especially choosing a smaller vehicle than I had been used to. What I found was a huge range of low mileage vehicles from all manufacturers available at very competitive prices.
Eventually I settled on a Hyundai i30, two years old, 5000 miles, 3 year warranty for approximately £10,000 below the current new list price. I had a choice of 12 different i30s!!!
Why buy a new vehicle?
I got a mint unmarked in and out 06 reg, 62k miles, FFSH, one coffin dodging owner, always garaged Fusion for £700. It looks 2 years old, not 11.
Why buy new indeed!
