Thats called an 'over allowance' Where they take money out of the profit of the car you are buying & bump it onto your p/x to artifically inflate its value. If you look on your invoice for the car (not the order form) I bet it doesnt show it as £18.5k :) (Unless there is finance involved or they are working the figures for VAT reasons) :) |

Thats the trouble, the public have no idea how the motor trade works :rolleyes: Most people rush to pay full asking price on property, because they are worried it will be more if they wait - Wrong! - It is because people are rushing in and creating an artificial over demand - prices go up. Conversely, if it is rumoured that car values are plumetting, people will rush to try and sell before 'loosing out' - creating a buyers market... Supply and Demand - dont be a victim! - Rmember the days when a Porsche Turbo went from 27k to 127k in a matter of weeks - yep, The Supply & Demand rush of Mugs - couple of weeks later - market crashed when sanity resumed... Not suggesting the values are going up, however as long as people dont fall for the old ' well nobody wants that model now ploy' there wont be a dive in prices. - If someone cant afford an 05 STi Prodrive, they will look for alternatives, the 03 STi is the alternative that saves money whilst offering similar looks and performance.. |

You get used to it - but it's fcuking scary the first time it happens ! |
