Cheap Car Deals

There has never been a better time to buy a car – thanks to End of Year sales and the global economic crisis.
Last week's new vehicle sales figures reported that 71,647 cars, trucks and light buses were sold in November – which is down 22.2 percent compared to the same month last year.
As a result, new car dealers are frantically reducing stock; and because of slowed sales and overstocked dealerships, it is now a car-buyer's paradise! Get ready to barter!
"There is a lot of stock on the forecourts, interest rates are down and dealers will be keen for business," says aptly named VACC's Executive Director David Purchase...
"For car buyers, we advise them to seize the opportunity while they can, because this situation will not last forever. The fall in the Australian dollar means that prices for imported cars must rise once dealers clear current stocks," he adds.
