Buying a pre-registered car
I am in the process of buying a pre-registered Hyundai i30 from an authorised dealer. The salesman says that they have to keep the 'log book' for the first three months for accounting purposes. Is this correct, or have I anything to worry about?

Plenty. See this case report: www.honestjohn.co.uk/news/legal--motoring-advice/2.../ ANPR traffic and parking offence tickets will go to the registered keeper, not you. You will be at risk of being prosecuted for an offence under section 43C of the Vehicle Excise and Registration Act 1994 (as amended) or that a claim made against a car insurance policy might be prejudiced.
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.

What's the difference between a new and a pre-registered car?
I'm being offered one of the last 2012 model CR-V Hondas at £24k with delivery miles only and pre-registered. It is an auto ES-T which would have been listed around £29k when new. The price sounds good...
Would you buy a pre-reg Insignia Auto for £16000 with delivery mileage or a hybrid Auris or Prius? I am 61 years old and not doing more than 5000 miles per annum. Would you suggest an alternative?
