Anyone bought an MkV R32 very very recently....

[crazybastard]

I am toying with the idea of a pre-registered stock car from VW.

There seems to be plenty of pre-reg. stock around and I want to get a deal seeing as it's a "buyers market".

Has anyone bought a "58" plate car for under £22K.

The spec. I am looking at is:

Black or Silver, DSG, Sat Nav plus the other bits.....parking sensors, winter pack etc.

There are plenty on vw.com at £23/24K but I don't want to pay that much.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your input.

If you look at vw.com it's £20-22K for a zero miles manual with leather and £22-24K for leather, DSG an Nav (hardly any Manuals with Nav).

These are "Pack" cars which were pre-built. I was told all the 3-door, low-spec (cloth etc) cars have been sold which is where, I believe, the £17-19K price expectation comes from.

All "new" cars available seem to have leather and are 5 door versions. The DSG and Nav models are £30K list cars (originally) so I thought £22K was not a bad price.

I am going to negotiate hard...there finance offering was 12.6%!!!!

......58 plate 10 miles on clock. Pre-reg but as new.

I spoke to 8 dealers telling them I wanted to do a deal by the end of this week.

After telling them what I wanted spec-wise they went away to see what they could offer pricewise.

Guess how many called me back?...........2

No wonder the car market is fooked!!!

Nice. Did you get stiffed on a p/x though, or was it a straight purchase?

No part ex. Leased it (not via VW way too expensive).....got a great deal on that too.

Just bought one last week, deal just under £24k, 5 door with every conceivable extra, think list price was in excess of £30K.

After having a TVR and 3.2 vectra, don't think the fuel consumption is that bad?

Great car.

There will always be someone saying you paid over the odds. When I was looking I was told there were loads for £18-20....I couldn't find any and I called about 30 dealers.....

If you wrer happy to pay £24K then be happy and enjoy the car...I certainly am!!!
