Ok, maybe this is a stupid question, but I'll ask it anyway!
Is January the quietest month for new car sales and are prices therefore better than one will get/negotiate in February or later in the year?
I'm after a new Citroen C1, which I believe is less affected by the credit crunch than most cars as it's incredibly frugal. Citroen have an £800 cash-back on it in January. I've got a very attractive quote from

which is a lot cheaper than the best I can get from the Citroen dealer - i.e. list minus £800 cash back. I don't need the car immediately, but assume that

will follow the dealer price through time and therefore would appreciate advice on whether to definitely go for it in January because prices will go up. (Also, the weak exchange rate will possibly drive them up as it feeds through). Advice appreciated! Thanks.
