    So it is almost December 2022 and there is still no premium car to be found, I’ve been waiting for over a year to get a hold of a decent car but it doesn’t seem like there are any coming any time soon, I spoke to mercedes they might replace motability cars with just Smart cars which is ridiculous, Audi is back with their A3 with low spec and high AP which no one wants, I guess the wait is on BMW to see if they will at least offer a car that’s not a hatchback.

     

    To be brutally honest, looking at how the APs have been going, we’re going to have to hope the forecasted recession hits the motor industry quite hard, thus we become a favourable and consistent source of turnover at something close to a profitable level for them.  While they can sell cars clear into next year (or beyond) their in no hurry to sell discounted cars to Motability so that we get a Mercedes with just a £1k deposit.
