I'd defiantely buy ex-demo again. Like someone stated in an earlier posting - the money you lose, just driving a car off the forecourt is cronic!

My very first car - a Rover Metro - was an ex-demo from Jersey - I saved a packet on that car - and YES it was very reliable, never let me down. I brought my last car - Rover 200 via a British Car Auction and again, got a excellent and faultless car - saving just over £3k from main dealerships forecourts.

And now my lastest car - a Milano Red 1.8 EX - was an ex-Honda UK car, from Slough. Just 6 months, with 6k miles for £13,995 from a dealership in Wales. Had to drive 40 miles to collect, but saved over £2,500k from not buying at my local dealership in Somerset.

It pays to do your own research into the model and spec you want, and to how far you're prepared to drive to collect one. I looked at and spoke to various dealerhips via the internet, including those hundreds of miles away - just to get the best deal.
