"Most of the 12 month old cars are ex hire."
Some cars less than 12 months old (certainly around six months old) are also ex-driving school.
Ford have a contract with the AA Driving School where mainly Focus cars are leased to the driving school for six months, and then returned to Ford for resale through Ford Direct. The cars are registered to the leasing company - Lombard Finance.
Vauxhall have a similar arrangement with BSM for Corsa's and Astra's - returned cars are sold through Network Q. Think the cars are registered to a 'front' company rather than being obvious it is BSM. In between Vauxhalls contracts with BSM, Fiat had a contract with BSM with BSM using the 500 - similar arrangements as regards resale.
Certainly one quite large driving school in the Birmingham area use Hyundais.
