Post by: Bacon Butty Man on 21 May 2009, 19:38:42
found a nice veccy 2.2 elagance yesterday, up at 2995.00, they offered me 415.00  :-/ yesterday for the mig, i said i would consider it, yeah rite...... so they phoned this morning and true to my persona i thought lets see how far i can push them, we went down to re-vue the car, the salesman let us test drive, apart from a few niggles all was well, we all sat down, he said is the offer acceptable, i said no, get your calculater out!!.
he then offered me 500.00 for the mig, i said no, i said what would you knock off for cash with out trade in, £200 he said, i said i would give him 2500.00 for the car, he went away and had a word with the boss, ame back and said they would give me 600.00 for the mig, i said no i wanted to pay 2500 for the car now,he ummed n arred, said he couldnt do it, so i said we would go n think about it as we had a ficticious car to vue, a vecy deisle, with that he lloked quite paniky. we got up n walked out. :P :P :P :P :P :P
tea time today got a phone call from the head sales man, he asked if we had bought the ficticious veccy, i said we were considering it, he said he could do the car for 2500.00 with out any warrenty, ;D ;D :D (i thought we are getting nearer to a deal that suits ME) no i want the warrentee i said, then i hit him with it, i said i would pay the screen price but  i will accept 700.00 for the mig on trade, i want the petrol filling up, new MOT, the niggles sorting out, and i want to keep the 2 months tax thats o the veccy and want to remove the 9 months tax from the mig, also i will remove the stereo system from the mig, i could hear him groaning on the phone :y :y ;D ;D ;D, he said he would need to see the m.d. and would get back to me, when he phoned me back ten mins later i let the answer phone get it. he said we had a deal if i put the deposit down of 500.00
 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
i thought thats the way to do it, after i cash in the tax n sell the stereo that will giv ;De me a total of 900.00 for the mig, i only paid 910.00 for it 15 months ago. heres the cruncher, the wifes unsure weather she likes the veccy now :-/ :-/ :-/ :-/ :-/ :-/ :-/ bugger me, its worse than giving birth

Hmmm.........Something I might be doing next week, got to decide if I really want the car first below the haggling begins.
Going away this weekend so after that might just go have another look see (more seriously), if it's still there at a 5 series BMW tourer It's up for £2995, too much me thinks straight away but maybe haggling techniques like you will get that price down.
No part ex though

I'd rather have a newer Omega!

Mind you I paid £4500 for mine over 3 years ago, and I had to fight off another buyer.
