You could save thousands on a new Jaguar S-type or other cars with our weekly broker deals feature

Whatcar.com is all about getting you the best possible car at the best possible price. Our army of researchers has been finding out which brokers are bringing you the biggest savings.

So whether you're going to be in the market for a supermini or a super-fast coupe, whatcar.com is the only place to visit.

If it's a small family car you're after, how do you fancy £1752 off the What Car? Target Price of £13,947 for a Ford Focus 1.6 Zetec? Or, put another way, you're looking at £3450 off the list price of £14,645. Contact Dealdrivers.co.uk for more information.

Don't like the Focus? What about a Vauxhall Astra? We've found a 1.4 Life hatchback for £9998 – that's £1630 off the Target Price, and £2677 off the list price of £12,675. Contact Autobytel (autobytel.com) for more details.

If you have a bigger family, perhaps an MPV is what you need. Motorprovider (motorprovider.uk.com) has a Nissan Almera Tino 1.8 S with £1951 off the What Car? Target Price of £12,801, which represents a £2650 saving on the list price of £13,500.

If you need a larger MPV, Drive the Deal (drivethedeal.com) is selling a Ford Galaxy 1.9 TDI Zetec for £17,904 – that's £4756 off the list price of £22,660, and £1839 off the What Car? Target Price. The Galaxy is due for replacement very soon, too, so don't be afraid to haggle further.

There are great deals on estate cars, too. We found a Saab 9-5 1.9 TiD Linear Sport estate on sale at Motorprovider for £18,850, which undercuts the list price of £23,105 by £4255, and the What Car? Target Price by £2518.

Perhaps the most eye-catching saving we found was on a Jaguar S-type 2.7 V6 diesel. It had a whopping £3289 off the What Car? Target Price. That means it saves you £5698 off the list price of £28,895. See Motormouse.com for more details.
