Pre Reg Question

If you had the choice of 2 cars then which one would you go for? one was middle range and reg in Nov 2010 the other is top of the range reg in Apr 2010 and they are both the same price, no miles on either and still come with warranty, only thing is one will have more warranty???

  • Top of the range one. More saleable when you come to sell it on in the future.

    Check the spec sheets, Is there much missing from the lower spec model?

    I presume its at least one plate change behind possibly 2 ??

    That will affect resale value. Depends hos long you plan to keep the car.

    3 years you may notice a fair few ££ less at part x time, 5 years not so much after that
    it wont make much difference and as mentioned the higher spec car would be a better option
    as the value between lower spec & higher reduces.

  • April 2010 will be a '10' plate and the November 2010 one will be a '60' plate. Only one plate difference between them.

    Generaly the rule of thumb is go for the youngest but go for which one feels right for you.

    Do you realy need that gizmo?

    For me I would pick the one with leather seats (purely easier to keep clean and don't look awful after dogs and kids).......:)
