buying a one year old preregistered car?

[midnightOK]

already paid 500 quid deposit, now Keep thinking if this Is the right decision. Car Is a new one, preregistered, But has been sitting there for a year

I wouldn't see any issues with that, other than to ask why it hasn't sold? Unpopular choice? Colour? Entry level trim?

Is it from a huge dealer who throws out lots of pre reg? Or a small place that's had it on the forecourt for a year?

The car is effectively new though, i would probably take a chance on it, warranty etc still in place?

Assuming it is still under warranty it sounds fine

@ChequerBoard @justbeniceplease Thanks, hope everything Is OK

@Frazzled2207 yes, has two years warranty left with it

Doh - I thought you meant buying a car for a one year old ! Coffee hasn't kicked in yet obvs !!

I got a pre registered car from a dealer that was registered 3 months before I got it. It was in the showroom

I saved thousands on the car and saved loads of money on the extras it had on it. They sold and slashed the price just before the next new plate came out to make room.

Like justbeniceplease says I would as the question on why it hadn’t sold for a year bu unless it’s something that sounds really dodgy I wouldn’t let it put me off buying another pre registered car

If you are unsure of anything just get it checked out under the warranty as soon as you can each and every time

I assume they are doing the first year service before you drive it away?
