NISFAN - What do you mean work from the base price up when calculating discounts? Is that without optional extras?

You shouldn't have to travel all the way to Reading to get a similar deal.....once you have a keen target price, you phone the business managers (BM) at more local dealerships and recite the price they need to be at to get the business. Make sure you only speak to the BM, Sales men will just screw up your chance of getting a deal. Be sure to tell them you are in the position of going ahead provided they match/beat the deal. That should see you getting something more local.
Dealers have around a 15% margin on the base price, or transfer price if you like. So 10% off a list of £32,975 is 32975/1.10 = 29,977, which means the discount you have been given is over 10%. Hope that makes sense.
