That's nearly £11K more than the one I was looking at down my local dealer, and my dealer's one is a higher spec (albeit it's done 1800 miles). Consensus was the one my dealer has was about £10K too much, making this one about £20K overpriced?

And PV don`t even haggle , we tried that and got not a penny off when we were looking for a car for the wife.

All they offered was a years road tax deduction , £20 , on a £9k motor .

£103 pm in road tax

It stresses me out when I posts on here like this - it's another one I'd never want to do business with

Bonkers price that really.

Most dealers still have a couple of stock cars and one or two CS's. bows the tile for deals not being held over a barrel.

Yeah, but can you carry a delicious curry in the back?
Undoubtedly.

Not sure you'd want to though, my arse is suffering this morning after finishing the very same curry you speak of

That must be first year only - just the 450 a year afterwards, or 37.50 a month...

I think this falls under the category of "optimistic pricing". Or maybe just "failure to check your advert before posting". Knob

He's probably sitting by the phone, wondering why there's been no calls

That car doesn't even have the Ultimate Pack on it.
