ED30-Have I got the biggest discount competition?
« on: 07 March 2007, 22:43 »
Hi there,

Just ordered my ED30 Decided to sell my current Gti privatly as stealers were ripping me off with part ex.

Thought I was doing well when I got one dealer to give me a £250 discount and £199 supagaurd free (ordering anyway).

I then managed to get a discount of £980 (4.5%)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Surely this is a forum record?

Anyone else have any luck getting discounts?

Was just away to ask the same question - which dealer is that?!
Mine is reluctant to give anything off as its such a desirable car - I think I got about £350 off, but nothing is set in stone yet.
I also have NTI.
What options did you take.  I think the more extras you take, the more they can discount?

I didnt get a discount as such, as I am buying mine on PCP but I think I got a decent enough deal.

Main dealer quoted me £2500 deposit, £410 a month and final payment of £8000 on a standard GTI (with 18 monzas)

And £500 a month on a ED30.

In the end got a 3dr ED30 in black pearl, only extra is armrest but got it via CarFile.net for £350 a month (saving £150 on the main dealer quote)

Just got to wait until end of April for it to turn up!

The company is called New-car-discount.com

They will give you a £982 discount regardless of what spec you order.

The cars come from a dealer in Manchester and are full UK cars. One of the 1500.
You can do the usual dealer option like cruise control/supaguard etc. as normal.
Delivery time quoted 8-10 weeks.

Why go to a dealer and get ripped off?

Are these imports, or UK cars?
If they're UK cars it might be worth me having a look!
That'd pay for my xenons and front arm rest!

Hi DJ,

Congrats on your order.  I have been looking at these people for my order, are you happy with
the service you have received so far?  I think if you search on these forums you will find a few
stories about slow deleveries but this seems to be when the MkV first came out so is probably
par for the course.

Do you know what dealer the car is coming from as I'm pretty local to Manchester so it might
be worth me trying to go direct to the dealer.

Did you just go for standard spec or did you get any nice extras?

Cheers

Paul

You may find that these are pre-registered, which is fine and still new, just makes you the second owner. I was looking for ages (for other vehicles) and this was the best way to get money off. A few companies work on "Fleet" discount.

All I would say is double check, and if you're not bothered save a grand!
