vRS Discounts

[vRSbloke]

Quick couple of questions:

- what sort of discounts are readily available on the vRS estate TDI?

- Is the 2.9% APR finance offer available on diesels or is it just petrols? The website just gives a petrol finance example.

Thanks all.

When I first spoke to the dealer on the phone they were adamant that there are NO discounts to be had but as many others on here will say, I used CARWOW.co.uk to supply me with a discounted rate from Skoda dealers in the UK and when I showed the discount to my local dealer THEY decided to match the price.

In the end I actually managed an even better price than the quotes I had but it does prove that you can get discounts if you put a little effort in.

 

FYI, I ordered an Octavia vRS TDI DSG 10 days ago.

 

Hope that helps.

Useful thanks. I had not heard of carwow before. So what kind of discount is offered?

^^ I was able to obtain a 6% discount from my local dealer using a carwow qoute as leverage, that was on 0% finance though so I'd like to think you'd be able to do a little better than that with finance now at 2.9%

Visit the carwow website mate, takes 5 mins to spec your car and you'll have quotes emailed to you before the end of the day.

Every dealer/ and or deal is different but CARWOW managed 6% approx.

I understand from people in the know that 12% is probably the maximum you could achieve thats if you strip out the finance offers and servicing offers.

 

If you achieve 9%  I would suggest you should be happy with it......If you achieve higher, you need to start considering an career in sales. lol.

Good stuff, thanks all.

I am in the military, so will also see if there are some decent discounts available for tax paid cars as well, provided they can be used with the dealer cheap 2.9% APR finance.

In which case...

You save so much a bank loan may be worth looking at.... Given you can hand the car back 13 months later and pay it off.

Thanks for that. I am UK based so tax paid not tax free unfortunately. Having had a quick look at those websites there still appears to be decent tax paid discounts though.
