Car advice

i am looking to buy a new car. if something is advertised for $15k at a dealer is it cheeky to offer less or do they expect it!my current car was advertised at $13k 3 yrs ago and I paid $10k cash privately.

Also I am having trouble putting a price on my current car. any advice bar looking as it's a nice version with lower kms, if I put it on higher is it like a house where the interest will be over quickly if the price is wrong!

They expect you to haggle, they love it when you don't as it is more profit for them

It is all a game.if you dont want to p. them off pay full price

they have rent to pay lights wages

If you wanted to sell your car to them do you think they would care about your feelings when making an offer

Why not haggle! It's your $$$$.
Last two vehicles I'vebought $1k less than asking prices.

only a fool would pay full price from a dealer - they add on extra for people to haggle. buying at the end of the month is best

Don't let them know you really want the car as that is playing into their hands. Don't let them know the bottom dollar you'll pay.

considering a dealer offered me $5500 as a trade in i hardly think it is worth only $2k-$5k :)
fryan1962, Jul 24, 9:02am
look what others are selling for on here for. that is called doing your homework

If they offered that, I would take it. Not trying to be a smart ass either. You can buy a lot of car these days for $5,500. Not a lot of buyers out there with that sort of folding.

To be honest, if you like the car keep it for a few more years. Save the money and have a wee trip away.
