    I get the impression that for most dealers the demonstrators are given to the sales staff to use as their own personal transport. Whenever I've gone to test drive a car they've always said "oh, we'll have to make sure Mr. Whoever is in that day as he's got that one"

    yes, demonstrators are used as company cars, thats the point - they are supposed to be driven around, so people see them

    the staff pay for the use of them in tax, so its not a freebie of working in car sales

    The price difference is nearly £750 better then the best quote for the equivalent "new" car (ie. first registration) which is a pretty good saving. The broker is http://www.ukcarbroker.co.uk/ and they seem to have a good reputation from googling them

    £750 is not a good saving on a car, that is being supplied from a broker, via a lease agency

    this car is not pre-registered, in its usual form, it is 2nd-hand and should therefore be priced accordingly
