Golf R estate, 19 Plate (March), 6k miles, base spec... 28k from dealer. Would pay mix of cash and 0% finance elsewhere. Good deal?

Ideally would love one with the pan roof and a few other toys but this seems like a decent price for a nearly new car. Plus no wait.

However I know a similar car sat on the forecourt for months.

Should I press the button or am I missing something?

Seems expensive to me, 6 months old, with 6k. New is only £33k, I would be expecting a larger discount, but maybe that's just me.

I'd opt for 12-24 months old for low £20k's but that's just me...

You could drive off the forecourt in a brand new one for £31k, so £28k seems expensive.

Fair points. But since new base spec deals with carwow etc seem to be about 33k...

This is nearly new, 2.5years still to run on the warranty and takes the edge off the depreciation to the tune of about £5k... still tempted

I put one through DrivetheDeal with metallic paint only and it came out at £31k.

Fair point that you can save on depreciation with nearly new, but that just shows that the one you're looking at is over-priced.

Thanks to the advice here I walked away.

Now looking at a nearly new Leon Cupra ST.

Thanks to all who advised.
