Hi lads,
Am I mad to be considering buying new in October? I got a very good price on a new Volkswagen Golf Edition R, saving just over €1,000 than if I waited until the New Year. I've shopped around and this is the lowest cost to change I've got. Most important thing to me is the lowest price for the car and I'll be keeping it for a good few years so depreciation is not too much of a concern. This offer has tempted me but I'm in two minds. Buy now or wait?

How much is my 2007 1.6 petrol 7 seater Renault Grand Scenic "Dynamique Luxe" worth ?, mileage is 65,000 km or 40,625 miles, NCT until May 2013, full service history. Does the extra features in the "Luxe" model make any difference - the main differences are climate contol, hands free locking system, and double sunroof.
