Any pre-reg WLTP bargains around?
I notice in Spain that there are a pile of pre-registered cars labelled "zero km" being sold at a discount to get rid of stock before the WLTP regs come into effect. Has the same thing applied here? I haven't noticed it.
Cheers
Philip

Thoughts on the Skoda Rapid?
I just wanted to know your opinions on the Skoda Rapid. I would be interested in the base model in either diesel or petrol. Which engine is better for about 30,000km per annum? Is this car very similar to the VW Jetta or SEAT Toledo?
Thanks

What should be covered by a dealer warranty?
Hi,
I'm buying an Audi A6 (2010) from a Nissan garage. What should be covered by the garage guarantee? Is the garage responsible for checking for previous finance etc? Is there a way of extending the official Audi guarantee?
Thanks

How much is the late fee for VRT payment?
Does the VRT late charge of 0.1% of the VRT due start from point of entry or after the 30 days have lapsed? As in, if you register in 40 days time from entry, do you get charged for 10 days or 40 days?
Thanks
