by bro got about 700 isn total off the car, well that was the car down from £4995, to £4695, the damaged alloys swapped for the best of the alloys from one of the reduced to clear clios ( a dci 81, f*cked paint but mint alloys), 3 brand new tyres, a new windscreen, supaguard treatment, car mats, half a tank and buncha flowers and a weeks insurance. and that was just my mum doing all the haggling for the rest of the stuff i knocked off the £300 because of a ding in the door and what i told him was high miles(30k on a 54)
i find it usually helps when you research the car, and go in knowing more about them than the dealer, but then again on some it can work aginst you. In Andys case, it went in our favour as i knew more about the whole range than the renault dealer did and he just sorta took my word for it and just knocked off the £300 and when ive been looking for the new car I'm looking at buying, i've been going about the dealers to see what ones they have in stock and what deals are going, and one i was talking too i kind of embarrassed with his lack of knowledge, and he offered me a cracking deal. i tried it in another dealers and he basically told me to go F*ck my self ( mind you that was arnold clark so i kinda expected it)
