post your U.K Bargains

Typhoon.

Seeing as sterling is nearly 1 to 1 has anyone spotted really good bargains to be got in the UK

I think this is a good bargain
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/706356.htm

I know there's no mileage quoted on it and its probably high mileage but its also probably moterway miles which isn't as bad

anyway...the VRT on it is e4578 (stat code 42186343) (which will be less in the new year) and you could probably barter another few bob off the asking price so I reckon you'd have this for around 12k...:)

ahhh...i can dream i s'pose...

bf

trying to read the odometer in the photo, it looks like there is 72k on the clock, good value if that is the case!

Typhoon.

lol...ya crafty bugger i never thought of that

well spotted bf !

Great Thread

tvr

cracking price, considering i remember seeing a 320 es with similar spec but with less mileage go through a uk auction for about 10k.

Id say considering the price it might be a cat d so as always buyer beware.

Real deals are on the big engined models in every range. The English are now almost as allergic to them as we are.

Great post OP.

I've seen some great deals on cargiant & autoquake myself, the VRT is really a pain in the hole isn't it. I saw a 2006 Hyundai Coupe 2.0 for £4999 and VRT was €5800, more than the cost of the car. Same applied to a lot of the cars, I know its the same for all but it's such a rob as the OMSP's are ridiculous.

Well wear.

Why is nobody posting links with the likes of Auto Trader?
Safer to go via cargiant etc? Because I can't find anyhting in my price range with them (IE up to 4k GBP!!).. So much value to be had at the moment, if only my own would sell!

I just had a look at that Autoquake site, how are their prices so low? Has anyone here bought from them or know what their rep is like?

Focus's are the best yoke to bring in imo.110bhp 1.6 tdci only gives out 127g emmisions and decent ones are plentiful over there.Its no hard task to get a 06 one with average milage for under 7500e inc vrt.

Actually fantastic value alright if you live in the UK and dont mind the lower spec and lower grade engine on the V6s. RRP on a new 2008 V6TDI was £32-34k IRC.
VRT due of €24k is woefully inaccurate though. On the tax, thats the cars fault for being so dirty!

RRP on the base (although I'd hardly call it low!) spec was £43k, with promotions reducing this to £37k! 23k is stunning value - has to be up there as the best pound for pound car in the UK at the moment. There's obviously a big clear out going on in advance of the upcoming 240 bhp model - Autotrader has 45 2008 Phaetons listed versus 7 2007 cars!

Ok this might require a seperate, like what is the deal with warranties?

I am seriously interested in taken advantage of this situtation ( im usually a tight git lol ) been driving around a bangered up 1.3 Corolla for years now, anyway say I buy a 06 Hyundai which have a 5 year unlimited miles warranty from new or Kia Ceed which has a 7 year/160,000km, does it cover me here?

Typhoon.

I think the 7 year warranty is on the drive train only Tony

i bought a car 2 years ago in the UK and i emailed warrantydirect.com (or someone like that) and they said they'd still cover te car even if i brought it over here (to ireland)...could be something worth considering if you were buying private... get 6 months cover off them. sure thats all that a garage would give you anyway.

Preset No.3

Ive never bought a car from this company but one or two people I know have dealt with them, they even have a direct link to the crt calculator.

To be honest I'm using the recession as an excuse to buy myself something really nice, sher I might as well ride it out in style like?! Only problem is I don't have a hope of selling my own car.

RE the insurance, I'm only 20 and have had no problem getting insurance on a 2.5 litre BMW coupe that I'm hoping to buy, so a 2 litre golf shouldn't be overly difficult, although I know it's a GTI.. Expensive perhaps, but surely worth it!
