stumbled across drivethedeal.co.uk a few days ago, a site that seems to be able to gain huuge discounts for brand new cars, e.g. Fabia VRs, 14500 from 17500.

has anyone ever used them, are they too good to be true or a genuine outfit. read a few reviews on Google and they seem to be telling the truth but thought id ask the vast PH 'massive' (as i saw it put a few days ago) to see if anyone has ever dealt with them.

My brother used them once. They just find discounts from proper dealers so it's all legit.

yeah they all look pretty good, that 3k is more than VAT, pretty much wipes out the 1st 12/18months depreciation.

very tempted to look into it a bit further. they can even sort out the finance for you.

I got a quote from a similar company and took it into a dealer, dealer matched and beat the deal.

We have bought 3 cars at work through them, brilliant to deal with, couldn't recommend them highly enough!

I think you're going to be disappointed with that logic. You'll be able to get those discounts from a dealer if you haggle hard enough, which means other people can too. Thus if you can get a new car for much less than list, what do you think that'll do to used prices?
