    This is the first time that I've happened to be thinking of buying a car around the time of a reg change. And my first time thinking of buying from a dealer. Have been looking on & off for last few months. Main aim is to buy before Aug when tax runs out on my own car. Last week, I got the first call back from any of the dealers I've visited...saying he has a perfect 132 Reg for me. Drove it & I like it. It's a July '13 reg. It's listed at €25k. He's talking about giving me €6k for my Feb '07 car which seems fair enough. Should I expect the pricing on the 132 reg to drop in July if I hold out for a week? Or would that just be too easy?

    all depends on the car..from the price I'm guessing BMW or such or else a large SUV, If so the price won't probably drop at all at least not in the first few weeks.

    Increased supply may drop prices back a bit, but not because the reg just got 6 months older.

    Sure the dealer could drop the value of your trade-in too next week if that logic is followed.
