C63 pre-order dealer recommendation
Discussion
I'm looking to pre-order the new C63S. Drive the Deal is showing it at about 8% discount, but my local dealer so far does not want to play.
Anyone any ideas on what I could expect to be able to negotiate from a Mercedes dealer? And if anyone has a particular dealer they know is being kind in this regard perhaps a PM if they they don't want to say outright?
Looking forward to going back to an AMG after 3 years in my RS5

Getting rid of the A45 already?
A mate of mine is trying to get a refund on one due to the dash and passenger seat rattling which they can't cure!
The A45 was only a stopgap between selling my 2010 PPP C63 and the new 2015 PPP C63 coming out. Seeing as they've changed / renamed the PPP as the new C63S and will be available immediately I may swap sooner rather than later. 700bhp+ is very tempting!

Ive had no rattle issues with my A45 at all but I know some of the earlier ones did. Build quality has gone up recently, as has the reliability of the turbo units.

I have bought through DtD, albeit a few years ago now. The car was sourced from a dealer in Scotland. I live in the south and none of the local dealers could get close to the price. My brother bought the same model a year or two later. Did his own ringing around and eventually sourced from the Stoke area. In spite of being 200 miles away it was worth his while. It seems location makes a difference.
Got a call back from DtD this avo. No dealers are taking px on new C63s so id have to hand back or sell the A45. Also, no discount on outright payment currently. I did receive a pcp quote based on the dtd 8% discount. With £10k deposit and over 48 months they want £1009 a month. That negates the savings as gfv was only £25k. Maybe best to wait a year.

Spoke to my cousin yesterday (sales at mb Perth) and he reckons dealers can't match the 'drive the deal ' quotes so are in effect untrue in their promise.......... for now! Further down the line maybe, but for now mb are offering no discount.
But the cars are still supplied by Merc dealers, which if I am correct, you can visit for a hand over. So, not as though it's a secret.Edited by burwoodman on Thursday 23 October 09:42

What he meant was, the dtd quotes are a bit ahead of time. They will be available later on, just not now whilst full value demand is strong. Edited by burwoodman on Thursday 23 October 09:42
