The reason I like Fords . When buying my Fiesta I'd looked at other makes but no matter how good it was otherwise I always thought, well, no heated screen!

why does the history worry folk so much? as long as you do all the necessary check before buying nearly new or pre reg then i honestly don't see the problem.

how much history can a car have at less than a year old?

Just reassuring to "know" the history, makes you feel like its safe(r).

No, with a garage name in the log book same as anew one, get real:rolleyes:

And to an insurance company for a total loss within the first 12 months?


There are at least three examples here of new cars being cheaper on here now. Care to comment about that too?:D

I dont understand why people get so het up about it. Fact is that a few of us on here have got deals whereby its cheaper than used. Ok, so were not taking into account the haggle on the used cars, but it wont be by much, if any.

Still, cant beat that smell of a new car.... ahhh in a few weeks time I shall be experiencing again!! :j

Hurry up Spanish people and make my vehicle!

Yep, the only difference is that like second hand you just have the choice of what's there, you can't make your own to order. Just before the registrations change is a good time to get pre-reg cars. So expect some good deals on 59 models next February before the 10 registrations come in.

Oh yes you can order what you want. My new car is a pre registered car that was factory ordered to my spec. Try all the big online brokers like buyacar etc and they will factory order you a pre reg.
