69 anyone?

I haven’t seen any myself either, but then again September was never as busy a month as April.

 

If the build times on the new Cupras are anything to go by, despite people buying new cars, the manufactures don't want to build them.

 

Still none, of any marque.

 

To be honest, I don't really notice the plate change these days.

In the good old days (many of you no doubt too young to remember!) it was once a year on 1st August. It just seemed to be much more of a big deal then and more noticeable too.

 

I work at a SEAT dealer and things are tough. We sold more than double new reg's last September Vs this September.
A lot of other dealers are feeling the pinch too.
Used sales is very strong however!

 

Interesting point, but from my recent experience in a SEAT main dealer you'd think that they'd sold enough for the month or year, as they really couldn't be arsed to show any enthusiasm.

Luckily I then found one younger sales guy who did give a monkeys!

 

My first 69 today:

 

last year I got a 68 plate and there seemed to be hundred of 68 plates local, this year have not seen a 69 plate yet

 

Saw a big 69 volvo. Not sure what model. Maybe a dogging concept car

 

I was followed in to work this morning by an all black Cupra 290. Copper badges and 69 Plate. First one i've seen.

 

Not seen one yet, but i am keeping my eye's out!

 

Seen that many it’s like an Orgy round here

Seen a couple, mainly company cars and vans. Thing is I haven't seen that many 19s either, it seems like people are holding on to their money at the moment.

 

Or are being given 6-12 month delivery dates therefore missing out on some registrations lol.

69 Plate? I've just bought one, brand spankers with 12 miles on the clock - I pick it up next Tuesday

Was meant to wait until the new '20' plate came out next spring and had almost certainly decided to
return to the FCA fold - then got tempted by a 'run-out' bargain of a Golf 7.5 wagon, (which won't actually
be replaced by the Mk.8 wagon until about this time next year.) This handsome, (if unexciting) beast ticks
so many boxes that I couldn't say no, despite the 15% chance/risk of it being a 'kangarooing' 1.5 EVO.

So, not SEAT but VAG none the less, (for better or worse) and of course similar in many ways to a Leon.
This now means the trusty '59' plate Proton Persona Ecologic is now up for grabs on AutoTrader for
anyone interested in a smart/reliable cheapie, (South coast Sussex area)

 

Here it is - picked-up from a sunny West Kent this afternoon with 12.6 miles on the clock...
