The zero percent finance swayed it for me

Thanks again for all the replies. 0% Finance aside, what kind of deals/discounts should I be pushing for? I've seen the Carfile/Broadspeed prices which suggest about 5/6k - any ideas if these are realistic?

Haven't used either f those, but have drivethedeal. It's simple you place the order, with a debit/credit card for deposit. They place it with a UK dealer who contacts you back directly to confirm the order along with order form and receipt for the deposit. Easy as that. If you need a finance quote you can get this from them too before ordering. Then you just deal with dealer until delivery.

You'll need to check, but I don't think 0% is available anymore on Superb elegance or L&K and discount may not be as high on a low rate PCP offer from Skoda. All this will be confirmed prior to order though.

cheers, Steve

ivory leather is fine as it is easy to keep keen but avoid ivory carpets as it is very difficult to keep clean and gets dirty very easily

Discounts may depend on the time of year and also what offers Skoda is offering. I placed my order November 2013. Skoda had interest free finance available the dealer offered me a discount if I did not want the finance, also got a good price for my 2007 elegance ( well looked after ). Cost to change £ 20000.

Sometimes you do see offers on this site in the recent news section
