New car buying dealer selection
Eight years ago, my wife bought a Land Rover Discovery using an internet service. The service obtained price quotes from dealers, and my wife selected the best price. She saved a considerable amount of money.
I cannot remember the name of the service now. Can anyone give me a pointer, please?

Motorfinity

There are many brokers now, the one used 8 years ago may no longer be in business.
Just search "car brokers" in your favourite search engine.

That is a good start. Thank you.
I have osteoarthritis in my hands so I speak my messages into a microphone using Dragon. Some people make "typos" but I often make "speakos".0 -
I will try that, thank you. The word "orange" lingers in my mind from our last usage.

What make and model would help.
As some brokers only sell some brands, not all.
Orangewheels went leasing only way back after 2016 ish.
Here are some I use for quotes , usefull the beat dealers over the head with.
Sometimes better deals are on Autotrader.

The last 2 cars I helped friends buy were MG EV vehicles, on Autotrader they had 10k plus discounts new

That looks super helpful. My wife thinks that the company we used was called Orange Box. Neither of us likes the drawn-out showroom experience. "I am going to speak to my manager". Thank you.

Thank you again. Carwow did the trick and simplified the discussion to agree on a suitably discounted price.
