Golf GTD 10% discount through Orange Wheels?

[ferris]

Hi
Have been shopping around for a deal on a new Golf GTD. The dealers seem to be offering between 3 and 5% discount but i found a company called orange wheels who seem to offer approx 10% off list price and the car is bought direct from a UK dealer. they seem good, has anyone used them before?
Looks like they just search all the delaers to get the best price and you don't actually buy from them but the deposit goes straight to the dealer.

There are loads of those types of brokers.

Have a look at these:

Hi Ferris how are you, I haven't seen you since the 80's ( sorry I couldn't resist )

Thanks for that.
So basically, if a dealer isn't willing to budge on price, you might as well use a broker like one of the ones listed?

Most of the vw enquiries go to Dane vw in Chester, think one of the guys who ordered a gti recently used them.

lots of brokers source cars from around the eu. So you will only get 2yrs warranty rather than 3yrs.. just so you know

Due to the exchange rate thats not as common as it use to be. Most just source them from the fleet side of a dealership. Its how mine was around this discount level. 

[ferris]

Yes all the brokers i looked at said they source from UK dealerships, just the same as if you'd bought directly from the dealership.
I think maybe the thing to do is print off the price and then go into your local dealer and say 'beat that'!

It won't happen imo as the price is from the fleet side rather than the retail side. I tried this at many places and non would get anywere near the fleet price. You maybe luckie if you find one that needs to meet a target but i will be suprised.
