LR main dealers advice

<< < (3/5) > >>

narked:
And if you even try to offer them that much in cash in one lump they have to report it. The gf's dad works in mortgages and investments, he regularly bores us with the extremely interesting rules...

MudRat:
WAIT UNTIL THE END OF THE MONTH< THEN OFFER A NON FINANCE DEAL, we knocked off 3K from a 9K vehicle as we said we would walk away unless they made us a good deal, plus 6 months tax and a full tank of diesel!!

att:
Brought back memories this one.
My wife and myself wanted to buy a new car for her use.
We had a decent budget and started looking at Merc SL`s
We looked at all sorts of motors and decided we should buy a car from the dealer that was the most helpful, the car became a side issue really, it was more an exercise in stereotyping on our part.
We ended up with a Toyota Aygo.
Turned out to be a very good exercise, we saved an immense amount of money and have a car that is stupidly cheap to run, great fun and with brilliant dealer support.
It taught us that it doesn`t matter how much money you have or don`t, it is the dealership that counts.
Spent vast amounts of wonga on fancy motors in the past, only to get crap service.

We are happy with this little environmentally friendly motor.
We must look like hippies I guess :lol:
...If only they knew :twisted:

Range Rover Blues:
Err, don't buy a freelander.

We looked at several, despite being warned off by mates in the trade.

All I can say is they all turned out to be a bitter dissapointment, just as predicted.

At the time SWMBO wouldn't drive another RR, she hates driving Blue and wouldn't entertain the thought of having another.

In the end I stranded her at work with the keys to my mate's TDi and her driving shoes.

We had an arguament

The next words out of her mouth were "so how much does Richard want
for this?"




Now I know I'll get shot down in flames by all the Freelander owners out there and I'm sure there are far worse cars to buy , but I couldn't get on with the constant droning from the back end, I can't take more than 10 minutes inside one.

Just my opinion though.

Terranger:
I went to a Land Rover dealership, and was treated rather well.
He even took the time to look over my terrano as trade-in, and he didn't laugh once.
Hopefully gettin an 06 Defender 110 double cab.
Don't fret, they're human too.
