Just pricing changing to a 241 plate . Have gotten a ball park figure from a few dealers there all in around the same. Just wondering how much wiggle room is there or are they willing to drop to get a deal over the line.

I’ve never had a dealer drop their price when buying a brand new car. We looked at a hybrid recently and there’s currently a waitlist until April…not sure buyers have the upper hand with them atm. Only wiggle room we’ve ever been able to manage with new cars is trade in pricing. Good luck

Apologies yea I meant the trade in price. Somebody said there first offer they go in hard and try ride you on the trade in. They catch you every way

Hear there’s little wiggle room in brand new ones but there is in extras like draw bar, roof rack, customising etc.

More wiggle room in second hand ones but too a point. Market is strong so prices are strong.

Sold privately and got a decent discount on a new car in July. Deals are out there if you're flexible on the exact model.

Put your own car on one of the car selling sites. Last year I was buying a car and got a quote of 18k including trade in. I put my own car on Dd and got 5500 for it. Went back to the dealer and bought the other car for 20500.

"Texas

No I wouldn't. Not at this point anyway. If only doing short runs around town then maybe but even then if be hard pressed to buy a hybrid. Why carry a big heavy engine and a pile of batteries around as well? Those yolks drink petrol when it in the open road. Second hard market for full electric is pretty good tbf

There are different types of hybrid - it's really important to differentiate here!

I drive a hybrid which can't be plugged in and actually runs on petrol. The battery is self charging, using the onboard fuel. I get between 5.5 - 6 liters per 100km in a 1.6 liter petrol engine which I find quite efficient compared to when I drove a 1 liter Polo which used that.

I'd never buy a plug in though!

You can point and laugh at the petrol stations as you pass them
