I'm still reaping the benefits today. I got (there was still oversupply in 2006) a Mazda3 RHD Euro import for 25-30% less than the list price. A little over ten Grand for new mid-spec C-sector car.

It made up for my previous Micra being not exactly cheap (still a good car) when I bought it in 1998 for £6.4k as a 2yo second hand car.

Isn't everything expensive these days? Nuffin good on TV except old repeats. Am I getting old early? :-)
