Snowy is working well.
Engine arrived some days ago.

I posted up a pic here a few days ago.


I'm sure you will take the pricing negotiations off line.

WRONG again because I was also offered a car, but at £22K unregistered after that date.

Not sure why HB is wrong.

You are both right.
Cars have been available at various prices after 30th June
Talked to cnc @ JAE - And his was a great price.


But the dealer would have had to take a hit from HUK. ( It was explained some months ago how that worked ).

Anyway - sales targets are generally complex animals, maybe taking a hit on one or two cars get's you the bigger prize.

I take exception to your post, are you inferring that I'm lying?

Adrian.
My comment was to this quote.


To keep it simple, as the posts are coming thick and fast...
I think you are both right.

A few cars have been available at great prices.
Dealers will have had to take a hit.

Calm down chaps..

Chris - you will have been able to get that deal.

But HB is right. The dealer will have been taking a hit.


Do a search ( I say that a lot huh ) - the reason is documented.

Well Gaspode I would only offer £15K for your old car now, especially since you were the one that did 8000miles in it and it has only had half a new engine. £25K is amusing to say the least be interesting to see when and how much it sells for, wonder if the dealer will explain the history to the new buyer? Hope they don't have to find out about its sordid past through this sight
