When is the best time to buy a new car?

As soon as you can, the best bargains are pre-reg, but make sure it's on a 68 or 19 reg that will be WLTP compliant: www.honestjohn.co.uk/best-pre-reg-and-nearly-new-c.../

Because of the falling pound sterling and because of EU penalties imposed on manufacturers for corporate average CO2 over the limits set for them, UK car prices could rise by 10% - 20% next year.
