Had a mail back from a local dealer about the Scout saying :

'It would appear that the Recommended Retail prices that you have available to you are out of date.

The current On The Road, Vat Free price on this vehicles is £18130. This includes all delivery costs and your initial 12 months road tax.'

Now I was going by the web price which is £19,640 - the VAT deal = £16,823 according to the Jan 2010 PDF

OK add Tax and delivery but I cant see that adding upto £1,927 !

Ahh... I missed the small print. It's + VAT...

if you are planning on ordering a car, do it today and not Saturday. If you order today it will be 2.5% cheaper than it will be on Saturday because at midnight VAT goes up from 15% to 17.5%.

Not true on Octavias. VAT free is still on till the end of January. You're effectively getting a bigger discount without negotiation as of tomorrow. http://www.skoda.co.uk/pdf/a-skoda-tax-free.pdf

In that brochure, the 4x4 and Scout TDi's are listed as being 160bhp. What do you think, a typo, or good news?
