Barnet,
Mrs D did that in 2014.

To be fair though, cash isn't as financially attractive to a dealer as a finance customer or, even worse, a PCP schmuck. Unlike the finance providers, the Bank of England doesn't pay them a commission for a cash sale.
Many dealers do not make much money on a brand new car. It is the add on's where they make their profit, finance, insurance, bodycare products etc.

We'll, I'm home, knackered but alive. And that's no thanks to the drivers of Warwickshire. I'm doing 30 through a village where the speed limit is 30, and 5 vehicles overtake me one after the other. 4 vans and an Audi. The Audi cuts it far too dine and nearly has a head on with a car coming the other way. If I thought any good would come of it is send my dashcam footage to Wankshire constabulary, but I'd just be wasting my time.

Sounds about par for the course.

Twas near Southam. The sooner the price of domestic fuel is doubled and these chumps are priced off the road, the sooner the world will be a nicer place. GPS speed limiters, excess speed detecting tasers, 28 day bans for minor speeding offences, public crushing of offenders cars while they are forced to watch, nothing is too draconian in my view.

M6 today, lots of roadworks, lots of 50 mph limits, still people flying round at 70 plus.

What is wrong with people? If they're in such a hurry, leave 5 minutes earlier. Endangering and inconveniencing people, not to mention the extra pollution, has seriously boiled my pith today. They're a bunch of selfish ar[next 3 paragraphs of foul mouthed ranting that would shock even Rupert Murdoch deleted by mods]
