ayrshiredude Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Ok so some of you will have read, and replied to, some of my other posts regarding getting a new ST. Tried my local dealer and also my local Arnold Clark who, though were not too bad, weren't as good as carwow. The offer I got from carcow was the £20 p/m lower than the other 2 I was looking for, however the dealer is in Birmingham, quite a bit away. So I went into my local dealer today and talked to him about it again. He did a bit of jigger pokery and hey presto was able to match it. Seems to be a little bit of underhand dealing but he suggested that's what the dealer on carwow would have had to do as well. So I shook his hand on the deal of £280 p/m which is really the most I was able to afford. Its a 3 year deal using Ford Finance. So I am getting an ST2 in Spirit Blue with the Auto Wiper/lights/wipers pack and a spare wheel (but paying for this). Theres one available for him to get so should have it for the beginning of Sept for the new registration plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil 87 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Congrats :). I got mine through Carwow too, and another dealer I went to had no idea how they got the price haha, maybe he didn't know about the jiggery pokery you mentioned.

Philf1 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 My son used car wow as well. They basically sell at a loss but make money back on meeting fords sales targets. Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philf1 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Also don't forget for every one of these deals 10 others will just pay the screen price with no haggling Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil 87 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 My son used car wow as well. They basically sell at a loss but make money back on meeting fords sales targets. Yeah that makes sense. I actually tried to get them even lower but they said there is very little margin on the price they gave me, so maybe they weren't quite selling at a loss. Also don't forget for every one of these deals 10 others will just pay the screen price with no haggling It amazes me that people do this, maybe they're just being British, but everyone knows there are ways to get good deals on cars these days.
