By about 10% in September with diesels falling by 20%.
Reduced consumer credit and falling PPI windfalls partly blamed.

I suspect the falling pound hasn’t helped either.

Rocketing petrol prices.
Tory austerity measures hitting home.
Brexit uncertainty.
Confusion on diesel/petrol/electric hybrids.
A sitting government who hardly inspire you to leave home never mind attend a car showroom.
Homelessness a major worry.
Trump talking about his big button.
Buy a new car? I don't think so!
It's cyclical, new car sales are always falling, or rising, and the people who think they know why actually haven't got a clue,
We are talking about car sales, not cycles sinkov. Really! O:)
80% of New Merc’s and BMWs are not bought, they are leased apparently. As second hand diesel prices fall the costs of leasing are rising. Those on PCPs suffer similarly.
Sorry BT, but with this weather and Brexit worries, surely cycle sales are down as well.Quote:

Indeed sinkov, indeed.
I'm bumping this up BT, 59/60 our resident eco-warrior hasn't responded yet, so hopefully he'll see this in the morning, and it'll cause him to splutter his muesli all over the kitchen floor and his copy of the Observer.;DQuote:
