Cup Dealer Price

jon_r · Jun 19, 2003

Guys, have just been in to place an order for my Silver Cup WITH CLIMATE, (that bits important)

List price is £13695

What seriously do you expect i should be aiming at? They said they could manage 5% of list, which brought the price down to £13000 (approx)

I wasnt to pleased with that price, so didnt order one, they couldnt even match jamjar - (£12818) However ill give them 24hrs and go back.

This is for a genuine UK car with full 3yrs warrenty.

Ill wait for your replies with baited breath............. Cheers

for a new cup, i was offered £11.9k vs £12.9k, so you should be able to secure at least a grand off, about £12.7k or slightly better. The fact you want a silver/aircon will cost you slightly more cos you cant get an existing car

jon_r · Jun 19, 2003

Must admit was holding out for about a grand! There must be more than 5% to play with.

Sport182 · Jun 19, 2003

Try HSBC car choice they will save you at least £2000 off the list price! They can also provide very good finance deals.

Might be better off paying a bit more and getting a standard 172. Bigger discounts seem to be available.

VX-Tony · Jun 19, 2003

jon_r, I paid less than that for my new 172 from Renault...

BRUN · Jun 19, 2003

well the employees get about 22% off, he is probably wanting to meet a target so hence trying to keep the price high, if you leave it he will probably ring you back with a better price as he wont want to miss out on the sale

oh, and im pretty sure all the non UK cars get full 3 year warranty from Renault, you just have to write to em or summat ?....im not that clued up on that area...

jon_r · Jun 19, 2003

Hes already phoned, though still not low enough, its regarding the monthly payments. Told him to try harder.

Sport182 · Jun 19, 2003

Seriously try HSBC

Or call them on 0845 850 5151 they can give you a quote there and then.

Nothing to loose..... I was really impressed with them.

Yup... check on http://www.renault.co.ukwww.renault.co.uk and see for yourself!

BikeMan · Jun 19, 2003

Mick - I know what you mean.

Unless its raining

Dyewitness · Jun 19, 2003

My dealer said he couldnt go below list price as they the cups are very hard to get hold off and in great demand....then said if i signed i could have one i 2 weeks!

Try http://www.broker4cars.co.ukwww.broker4cars.co.uk guy who runs the place is sound and its uk sourced, you pay renault for the car and they will deliver it to you, much better priced than jamjar

Would you really pay £13.5k for a cup? Just cos it has a different lick of paint and climate?? What a rip..

jonm · Jun 19, 2003

See....its going to take a while before people accept silver Cups.

I was quoted £11900 a few weeks back, which was 8%.

Mick, how did you manage to get one for £10995??

jonm · Jun 19, 2003

That HSBC thing just looks like the options crap that all dealers offer.

Sport182 · Jun 19, 2003

You can buy the car straight from them, they will give you a cost price much less then any dealer, My girlfriend bought a brand new micra ad the old dear bought a brand new VTR the dealerships could not get an where near the cost price that HSBC came up with, not even i the same ball park! Calling them up and talking to them is the best bet instead of trying to get your head round the website.

jonm · Jun 19, 2003

So if they quote me £10500 for a CUP I send them a cheque for £10500 and thats it?

Dyewitness · Jun 19, 2003

£11579.70

thats for a 172 Cup from www.broker4cars.co.uk

Only £300 less than main dealer for a pre-regd car. Not that great.

Dyewitness · Jun 19, 2003

but that price is brand new and not pre-reg!

jonm · Jun 19, 2003

Interesting. It hardly seems worth even going to the dealers.

mick_cup · Jun 19, 2003

My local dealer had one in stock at the time....maybe they really needed the sale before xmas ? I didnt question them just collected it a.s.a.p. Spoke to a friend in the trade at the time who tried to get one cheaper but he came back and said buy it....

Yep they will give you 2 prices a cash price (just give them then money) or a Finance deal (over 3 or 5 years)

jonm · Jun 19, 2003

Ill call em tomorrow and see what they say.

jon_r · Jun 20, 2003

Reno just got back to me. Theyve knocked a grand of list, therefore with the climate its £12695, without itd be 12k.

Think this is fair enough, theyve made an effort, and got back to me numerous times now.

Placing order at lunch.

jon_r · Jun 20, 2003

P.S, thats cheaper than Jamjar, and i know when ill be getting it!

watford red · Jun 20, 2003

jon_r - which dealer are you using? i tried to bargin with one last night on a 172 and he wasnt budging - discount of 600 quid off the list price and a terrible trade in offer - left shortly after that as was a waste of my time

jon_r · Jun 20, 2003

Crawley Down Group. Luckily mate is the salesman im dealing with. He said straight up that threre was only 7% in the car, and in the end thats what i got.

eventually

jonm · Jun 20, 2003

They have 10% to play with, you should be able to get 8%.
