And especially with Road tax increases in Apr.

A reason could be the final end of quarter week when dealers start heavy discounting to meet targets missed this year

April sales down 97% at 4321 (or is that the descending order :lol: :o ) . I'm surprised there were any!

And In April Tesla Model 3 with 15% of all UK sales was the best selling model. Few showrooms and most sales online could well be the reason

Indeed. No point getting a new car if there’s not enough people out there to admire it.
