Speaking to a daughters boyfriend who is works at a car dealership ( of many marques) he says that they are buying second hand cars in higher priced than usual because of the lack of new cars coming in means that trade ins which is an important additional revenue source. Consequently people looking for newer or later cars are restricted to choice so are a captive audience.
Hence price hikes .

over 40 lcv jimnys on autotrader this morning. Lack of cars my Ar%e. Just a bunch of thieves. Don't buy one, wait & get a 70 plate for £15/16K next year. Only 2 seats no good for a family. 4 seaters will hold a higher price not the lcv.

There is a lack of cars in general, I Work at a suzuki garage and any new car orders are now due to us in march.

The prices of the Jimny's wont really drop much at all still limited numbers coming through and only 400 for next year maybe so dont expect prices to drop much.

Limited numbers !!!!! Dealers buying there own cars when they should be selling them to the public. Then ask stupid prices and blame it on "LIMITED NUMBERS" I own three Suzuki cars and will not be buying another one.

Bang on with that comment, I won't darken a Suzuki doorstep ever again and I have had 5 new Suzuki over the years. The dealerships are making hay whilst the sun shines and treating their customers as fools. However the damage has now been done, Suzuki has rekindled the 1970s dodgy car salesman reputation for themselves and it will take a long time to regain the customers trust. Suzuki GB should have nipped this bad practice in the bud by threatening to remove their franchise for potential brand damage even though it is not illegal to buy and sell them as second hand.

It's not Suzuki's fault though is it. There are plenty of dealers out there who are still doing the decent thing. Just shop around.
