Going going for a test drive on Friday . I would expect garage would be looking for an order after this . Should I hold off till next week . It is a petrol car I want . I am thinking only electric cars might have a vat cut . Anyone with a crystal ball care to speculate . Also read even if there is a vat cut garages might not pass on cut to customers but find ways to swallow this up .

    There was talk of it being one of the things they were looking at, but i think its looking less likely now.
