Carparkers guide
There are a lot of car suppliers that are not independent or Main Dealers but just have a website and many are "viewing by appointment only" (some have landlines some don't). Am I right to avoid these as I've seen what appear to be good examples of MX5s with FSH etc from such "dealers"?

If the viewing takes place at premises with lots of other cars there, then fine. As long as the dealer’s house isn't a caravan. If he merely meets you somewhere, like a carpark, with the car then politely turn him down.
Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.
