Hi, I love your podcast. The automotive industry is constantly evolving, and the future of new car sales is uncertain. Would like to draw your attention to https://www.asset.accountant/blog/ato-rules-luxury-vehicles-and-depreciation-for-vehicles/ the luxury car depreciation limit. While it's unlikely that all car dealers will have no new car sales in 2025, it's possible that some may face challenges.

But CarPlus.co.uk makes it more like having a top-notch agent who knows all the best roles and how to get them. Want to know more? Visit https://carplus.co.uk/bad-credit-car-finance/benefits/.
