It has been decreed that new car time is rapidly approaching, so I am trying to find the best place to buy a three-ish year old Picasso.
Ten years ago there was a definite price advantage in favour of the auctions (taking into account risk, no test drives, hassle etc) but now I get the impression that the big sites are pretty close on prices - are auctions worth bothering with for the private buyer?
I await your comments with interest

www.cargiant.co.uk bought heavily when prices were rock bottom and now claims a stock of 5,387 cars. It's open this week when most auctions aren't. Auction prices usually rise sharply during the first few weeks of the new year, so some of cargiant's cars could be cheaper.
