If considering buying a new carwait 6 to 12 months from the launch so that initial bugs and issues are resolved in production, but before the accountants get at the engineering and look for ways to take cost out, i.e. cheapenifying bits and nicking frills and trinkets that used to come as standard. Remember, it only has to work faultlessly UNTIL THE WARRANTY EXPIRES.
You can also play this game with second hand cars, just do a bit of research and find out when the model was launched and then check its date of manufacture (but not date of first registration as it may have been sat in a car park for months before going to a dealer).

Good point. I normally do this with games consoles or other electronics / electicals. Not to sure if these products are worth it anymore, as cheap, crappy tin-based solder is used since leaded solder became outlawed a few years back. Why can't they use silver solder instead?
