Audi S4 - new discounts

[alxce]

Anyone have any recent experience of what sort of discount can be achieved on a new S4?

[RammyMP]

Broad speed can get you £7.5k off one!

Thanks for that. I also have dealers knocking off 12-14% through CarWow, I realise its the end of quarter but is there a new model coming or something?

[RammyMP]

The new A4 is due out later this year so there should be good discounts on the outgoing model.

Carfile.net had best discounts when I was looking - just under 14% off list price including options, with a further £2500 finance contribution available. Broadspeed discounts already include the finance contribution, and don't discount options.

Try CarWow as well, and give your local dealer a chance to match. Mine came within a couple of hundred, which was close enough for me.

My S4 Avant ended up with over £8,400 discount from an OTR price of £46K. Good hunting!

New A4 is due for launch at Frankfurt, so in dealers at year end. I wouldn't expect new S4s to be on the road until the end of 2016.

Thanks for the info. I am guessing you took advantage of the finance offers if you managed to 8400 off the RRP? I don't really want to take the finance but to get the maximum contribution I may have to. Any idea how quickly you can pay off the finance and at what penalty?
I am hoping to get into my local dealer tomorrow to see what they can come up with to compete with what I have so far from brokers/dealers. Need to be quick as I have a feeling some of these deals may disappear on the 31st.

Yes, but like you, only to get the contribution:
My PCP is for 50% deposit with a GFV of £2.5K, 18 monthly payments. Maximizing monthly payments mean minimum interest. I plan to pay it off completely after 6 months. You can do this sooner (in fact, I suspect you can simply cancel the PCP within the cooling off period and still keep the finance contribution) but that usually means no commission for salesperson...

Or £23,000 off the price of an S8 - cripes!

You can cancel the PCP within the cooling off period yes and pay the balance in cash there and then. Yes your salesman will not get the commission, harsh considering he probably had to do a modicum of work to get you your stonking discount. Do what silentbrown suggests, maximum deposit, highest mileage the system will allow to get the GFV as low as possible and pay it off in 6 months. Also means you don't need to get ~40k together right now.

Excellent! Do you have a build week yet? There could be some MY2016 spec changes in April...

[alxce]

No build week yet, thanks for the info. I will be sure to raise that when I hear because I am in no hurry and July suits me just fine.
