A bit of help guys.

Test drove a CLS 250 AMG sport yesterday, and am pretty keen to get one (as my ageing parents want a car with four seats so I can ride around with them).

The dealership is offering £5000 deposit with £439 a month. Is that a good deal, or something I could push more aggressively?

Any advice would be brilliant!

Thank you.

Hi there,

I work for Mercedes Benz and can offer you a better deal than that. If you could let me know what spec you are after I'll happily quote for you.

250 CDI Coupé AMG sport, not fussed about the colour but leather interior has to be anything BUT black. Looking to have the car ASAP. What is the best you can do?

Hi John,

what's your annual mileage and is it a three year term you are after?

Cheers

Hi, can you drop the deposit to £4000? Then that would be a clincher for sure.

Thank you for your reply. If you don't mind, I'll just need a few days to think about it. Thanks!

Are these deals only available on the 250 or are similar available for the 350D too?

I've been emailing a few of these (not with Freedom) and the advertised rates havn't turned into anything which is available ...

The CLS is advertised here on a 20k PA 24 months contract (business) with £2,039 deposit and £339.99 per month ... if I could get one on this profile for as near as £300 + VAT as possible, I'd sign up immediately!!

The online quotes through Contract Hire Leasing over the past few months have quickly become an absolute farce.

Not once in over 10 quotes has the price returned been anywhere near a firms advertised headline figure. Also, several firms show cars as in stock when in fact they have no guarantee of this.

The problem with on line pricing by contract hire companies - also the problem with buying everything on price alone rather than looking at service and standards - anyone can be cheap, but not everyone can be good!

Totally agree, as far as I can see, most seem to be advertising cars which simply aren't available at that cost to draw you in ...

I received an email only yesterday on cars supposed to be 'in stock' ... when they cam back to me, the only had more costly options available.

Personally I'm looking for the cheapest deal, because I have a budget and want to stick to it. As far as I'm concerned its a new car so is warranted by the manufacturer. I suspect once delivered and contracts signed, I'll have no dealings with the contract hire provider so their service (apart from providing the car) after this point isn't relevant to me.
