Anyone superstitious about getting a 13 reg ?

Spoke to a dealer yesterday and he's had a few folk say they wanted a 12 reg.

No, just ordered a new JCB, although it did cross my mind. I'm not superstitious but I won't listen to the radio on volume 13 ever. Hope the JCB isn't going to be unreliable :(.

I have thought about this for some time. I'm not that superstitious but I would not buy a 13reg tractor or car. I even would not buy an old vehicle where the numbers added up to 13, ie 265.
i think this will affect sales of cars now and spoil their second hand value.

I have always preferred " luck is a life time of preparation meeting a moment of opportunity"Not sure whose quote that was ? But always thought it very apt

Wife had a new Vauxhall Moka last month, it had to be one that could be delivered before March as she would not have a 13 reg. Weird though, the only one they had that she liked was top of the range :eek:.
