Would you buy a Octy VRS before the new one?

Would you buy a new Octy VRS before the new one come out?

I can't afford the new shape but I was wondering if you would buy the old shape now or wait to see if the values drop.

Looking into it I think that the currnt discounts are quite heavy to help balance out the effect of the new car???

What are people paying for a new VRS Iwas offered 13K for a pre-registered is this any good? :thumbup: or :thumbdwn:

When the new octy came out, the price of the vRS was reduced. If you cant afford a new octyII version then buy a new old one now whilst they are still available.

Nope, wouldn't buy either ;)

HTH, Chris

Well at 13k (I've seen this price for new ones rather than pre-reg) the old shape VRS is an absolute steal. There isn't anything else that gives that sort of performance in a car that size for 13k new. Second hand values might suffer a smidge when the new one comes out but as that's likely to start at at least 16.5k then that's quite a difference. I can't see that the old shape ones will drop any further so if you fancy one then you may as well buy it now.

maybe I need to push more.... I'm going for a test drive on Friday... Horners at Bury. So I will see what they will give me for the Mondeo.

They wanted 13990 new and 12999 pre-reg..

I can find anything out there with the same build quality for the cash..

I have give the fabia VRS to the wife and I can;t stand driving our Mondeo now.. 100 miles a day is doing my head in

Bought mine from Citygates in Chichester just over a month ago, paid

Must admit if the Octy I vRS can be picked up for 13k or even lower, I'd definitely go for it. Yes it will devalue a little, but then all new cars do anyway.

Spend a little on improving the sound system, and you've got a good allrounder. A few mods added perhaps and you're laughing :D

If you're doing 100 miles/day, you can always consider one of the PD variants as well, dunno what prices are like, and it won't be a hot-hatch thing, but worth a test drive perhaps?

Buy the current one at the reduced price and spend the five grand you will have saved on tuning parts and really enjoy it.

Had my new one for a month now and was offered a standard new unregistered Octy vRS for

Yep - Providing the discount is right I'd go for it.

Not sure I like the new one.

AT 11.5k I'd buy one and use the saving to pay for the extra petrol costs :D

11495!!!!!!!!!!! now thats a deal??? are you sure?

Positive, if you want more details contact me direct and I will see if this deal is still available.

Can you still order a new (old model) Octy vRS with lots of extras (which would make it a factory build), or are even the non-registered ones that they are offering just whatever is in stock?

My Octy vRs estate is a company car, but it was supplied via Horners Bury - no complaints so far (about 2 months and 2250 miles).

Enjoy the test drive - try to get it out on some twisties if you can.

Oh - and hope the lovely Gemma is still there!

You will see from attached sheet the Summer Deals that were offered by Citygates in Chichester. They sorted out my deal of

I bought my Octy 2 months ago, black with parking sensors & cruise for

The Octy's all seem to devlaue like crazy, at sub 13k I'd have though that even with a new version out you'll probably see normal depreciation for that class of car.

If you're worried about depreciation, don't buy a new car!

why did you buy a new car then? sorry, stupid question, take it you are not bothered by depreciation!

I had my new vRS hatch delivered back in January, cost me 14k on the nose with the metallic paint, cruise and parking sensors. It looks like I could have got a slightly better deal at the time but I am happy. Bar a few 'minor' problems I am really pleased with my decision.

I thought that when I saw the new vRS I would think, 'I wish I had waited' but tbh I am not sure I would spend the extra

Just been to my dealer to see if this deal is still up for grabs!. It ain't unfortunately but they do have a new (pre-reg) Silver Octy VRS with cruise for

Thanks Makefish going to give them a ring to see what they can do

Not very impressed with Horners at Bury. We got our Fabia VRS from there 12months ago and so I went back for a deal on a Octy VRS. They quoted me

Hope I have been of some assistance to you, good luck in your quest in finding the VRS of your desires, and at the right price/deal. :thumbup: l
