I bought a 6 month old Honda Accord, around 8000 kms done at 30% discount on the list price. It has got a 60,000/3 year free service - so all costs are covered. This is not a one of deal.

I had a BMW 320i in Bahrain. Picked it up and sold it for the same price - used it for 2 years though. Barely incurred any maintainance cost but deligently serviced it every 3 months cause i luv my cars

Can go on and on.

Point is - if you know about cars and can pick up a good deal - you'll save a lot buying a 1-2 year old car.I have and will always buy a 1-2 year old car.
