How many £ off new 1 series
Discussion
My dad fancies a new 1 series when he retires in July. Car he is after is £24k with options, but broadspeed and the like can do them for £22000 with toys- do you think a dealer match this? Tried ringing round a few but they wont discuss over the phone which I found a bit odd...
Cheers for the help!
Edited price!

Am I the only one who gets the impression that the poster is about 10 when I see this in a thread?
ring them up and tell them you will be purchasing "car xyz in xyz spec" on xyz date at xyz time.
you would like their best price and get back to you before xyz to place their best price forwards as at xyz you will be purchasing xyz car

(edit: I hope you didnt say your dad was looking to purchase! Make it much more straight forwards and likely to happen if 'you' are looking to purchase!!!)
Finding a dealer that will match a broker needs a bit of work, but is essentially a simple process.
1. Get price from broker (I prefer drivethedeal over broadspeed)
2. Call dealer, tell them you want to buy a car and have a price from a broker.
3. Explain to dealer that if they can match said price, then you will order there and then.
4. Repeat 2 & 3 until you find a dealer who will.
Don't bother unless you are actually ready to buy though. Unless you are ready to put money down then it's not really fair on the dealer/sales guy to take up their time.

Have decided on spec etc and have cash ready, will try again this afternoon. Explained on phone he is serious to buy and not timewasting, but seems they dont want to know. Fingers crossed1. Get price from broker (I prefer drivethedeal over broadspeed)
