Today's announcement by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders in London highlights a new car market in the UK that is down year-on-year for February. Here's the statistics reported by AM-Online http://ning.it/fRCRVg

With the first of two annual plate registration changes taking place this week (1st March, the other being 1 September), it's likely the market will see a bounce back this month. At least, we hope it will!

To what extent are there seasonal peaks and troughs in the USA market and does this affect dealer behaviour in any way?   

Interested to hear any views you have.
