No accounting for taste!

Well, this chat obviously motivated me, after not buying anything for 2 months just bought an MX5! Thanks!

Well, that's my theory gone up in smoke! Great to learn it now though, so thank you all for the advice.

Ok thanks. My theory was buying now when they might be cheaper and sell when they are more in demand. I would of course still try and sell them for a profit from now until spring, however, if they didn't sell, I guessed I would get more for them in the spring.

I have a budget of £3000 per car, is now a good time to start buying convertibles and essentially sitting on them until the spring to sell?

I new to the game too. I've bought a couple of cars from Manheim, I have nothing to compare them to, but they seem ok. I'm now looking at trying to buy privately local to me.
