Graeme,
There are reductions in price, I’m going through every price now.
The Audi Q2 has come down in petrol, the Hyundai Ioniq reduced by £1100, the Seat range have held up or reduced in price. Electric cars in the Zoe and MG also.
The rule of thumb is if you find the vehicle you want at a price you are willing to pay then go for it. If you are keeping the vehicle for 3 or five years it’s a long time to repent not getting the car you wanted because it was cheaper yesterday. Most manufacturers put up their prices one a year so you could fall foul at retail too.
