  Notable ‘No Sales’ at Top Car Today 26 Apr 2004 (News)
  Perhaps Jeremy Clarkson’s colourful allusion to a squatting dog has put down the Chrysler Crossfire. They’re at £1,650 discounts new and the 3k mile December 2003/53 automatic in the sale failed to get past £20,000. A 30k mile 2002/52 reg X5 diesel didn’t have the right bits to sell for big money. It wasn’t a Sport and had no satnav which is why bids petered out at £28,500.

  Best to buy in the UK? 26 Apr 2001 (News)
  An analysis of 7 million prices shows that the new car market is clearly defined: * 16% of models are cheaper in the UK when compared to Europe * 4% of models only deliver a negligible benefit (less than £500) when bought from importers * 25% of models are more competitively priced from Europe * 54% of the entire inventory is only available from UK suppliers, who offer the consumer greater choice * Importers only supply 0.5% of all automatic models available Steve Evans of Car Price Check says the results show that dealers only use the manufacturers 'list price' as a benchmark for discounts. "It is now a matter of fact that dealers will offer improved terms on the recommended retail prices," he says.

  A Grand Monday: Rover 114 SLi 13 Feb 2017 (News)
  It's immaculate and has clearly been well cared for, with a clean MoT history save for an advisory over corrosion on the spare wheel carrier.  Being an SLi, it has such luxuries as a sunroof, central locking, a rev counter and a radio-cassette (what more do you need?) and comes with the CVT automatic gearbox. Apart from a reputation for being a bit snatchy when cold, the Metro/100 CVT is one of the better automatic boxes to be found in a contemporary supermini - like all CVTs it makes some fantastically weird noises, but it's set up to keep the engine revs at their peak performance, and - coupled to the 84bhp 1.4-litre engine - that makes the CVT the best performing non-performance Metro there was.
