    My guess - stretching the clues maybe....

    1984 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera
    www.midtownmotors.co.uk/vehicles/ o/olds_ciera/olds_ciera.php

    Reason :
    Big brother '1984'. BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU. Book by George Orwell

    It is not straight = a cullass is crooked

    Worth a shuffle = card(s) (CUTlass / CUT playing cards)

    Seen it on the tele = advertised on the television in 1884

    Not exactly new = OLDsmobile

    Not exactly new = see AIR (air has been round for eons)

    If this is not enough try:
