Incredible bargains to be had.

That’s insane! Doesn’t say a lot for residual values…

Could say that for most cars now, anyone thinking they are coming out the average PCP deal in positive equity hasn't done much research

Agreed. Bought mine outright with a long term view so not particularly fussed from a purely selfish perspective.

The new versions are more expensive. So, if they do not do deals and reduce their prices, when the old stock finishes, I suspect the second hand price for the old version should increase or at least hold it's price better. The gap between the new and old prices is the driver.

The new versions are not more expensive, they are cheaper.

RRP certainly.

But not the prices for the ones posted above!

Thought we was talking about RRP.
Give it a few months (If that) and the facelift ones, will be absolute bargains, too.

Having never bought a "new" car in the UK are there any disadvantages in buying a pre- reg car as opposed to one where yours is the only name on the DVLA document?

I guess you won't get to say 'one careful owner' in the ad in the local newsagent.

With the rise of leasing etc. I imagine most people would expect a second hand car to have had multiple owners these days.

IMO No.

No. But at least there should be no negative equity due to the GFV in the PCP contract. That is assuming you decide to hand the car back at the end of the contract.

IMO No.

Only the number of owners which is not really an issue.

There will be negative equity but it is the finance companies issue.
Who with any common sense is going to pay the GFV for a car in negative equity..
