Can anyone recommend a vehicle broker or car supermarket?
 
I'm looking into changing vehicle in the future and I'm wondering if anyone on here can recommend a broker or car supermarket that they have had experience dealing with - or any that should be avoided. I don't want to go to a main-stealer as I just see them as robbing barstewards (especially the Honda one I dealt with when looking into getting a Civic Type-R a couple of months ago).

There are a few models that I'm interested in, but I'd just like to browse around and see what prices they are being offered at to begin with.

Go to Available Car at Castle Donington - no pressure put on you at all. VERY large selection of cars and you can take as many cars for a spin (albeit a SHORT one) as you like.

You'll only be approached to ask if you want the catalogue and that's it. Even when you come back inside you have to look for someone to help - they will rarely approach you.

I'll give them a miss. I'm looking at new/pre-registered.

Why dont you go to the dealers & looksee what you want & then order from one of those sites on the internet ?? I cant remember the names of them but i did see them when i was looking to lease my ML earlier in the year or try leasing ?

ScoobyWon't 08 August 2008 02:50 PM

Anyone you recommend for leasing?

I've taken the Civic Type-R out, which I absolutely love. That's high on the list.

However, I'm toying with the idea of moving to diesel. Plus I do like the BMW build quality to which I grown accustomed maybe a 320d SE or MSport.

Although I'm hoping to go out in a SEAT as they are supposedly better than the Golfs.

Think I'll keep browsing until I have a short list.

Ooh, I've just found a lovely one in Le Mans blue with only 4500 miles on the clock. :luxhello:

What colour is your other half's?

drive the deal gets my vote I always use them for my benchmarks and half always heard good things about the.

Have you looked at what Motorpoint have to offer.
Was in there today (Derby) collecting my new company car and did see a new red CTR for under £16K
Can highly recommend them, their prices are right on the money and they even loaned me a car for free until mine arrived.

ScoobyWon't 09 August 2008 01:03 AM

I looked at Motorpoint. The CTR's were good value, but the BM' 320d's were better value elsewhere.

Talk about being a week late :rolleyes:

I'm hooked on the Civic Type R-GT now, but can't decide from red or metallic black... :wonder:

Black of course.

You should get a quote from DrivetheDeal, wait until the beginning of September and then get a Honda garage to price match.

I bought a Focus ST3 in the end as although the Civic looks stunning, I'm too old to cope with revving it to 8000 when I want the power.
