Buying a new Scout (Probably) - Order now or wait?

Featured Replies

Hi Guys,

 

I'm umming and ahhhing about placing an order for a Scout 184.

 

The week-22 build thing is preying on my mind.

Wait and possibly get newer versions of standard fitment kit?

 

or Order quick to avoid a price hike?

 

Who knows!?

 

Anyone got any strong thoughts either way? When will a placing an order definitely fall into the week 22 builds?


Lastly - I was about to order when I discovered the broker with the best price seemed fishy as hell. Too many positive reviews on review websites from new users etc.

 

This makes the best prices I can now find £2K more than I'd been planning for.

Anyone got any hot tips on current outright-purchase deals?

Sorry why buy ?

 

There are £250 a month PCH's out there I'm sure as hell if you pop £25K off your mortage you'll get a better return than invest your own money in car.

 

Just saying

I ordered an elegance estate 2 wks ago, build wk 22 confirmed last Friday.

PCH? - I'm happy to look at the maths, but I'm struggling to understand how PCH wins long term - especially as my mortgage is a peachy one and I'm planning to keep the car.

 

Plan is to keep the car longish term.

 

Mortgage @ 0.99% APR

 

Savings at 3% Taxable income.

You have exceptional circumstances, try carwow for the best prices.

PCH £1200 down, £200 month, 10k miles PA for 2 years, overall cost for 2 years is £6K. buy car back afterwards, I'm sure it will have depreciated substantially more than £6K over that time!!

 

Ps) carwow should give you 10% off list (a south Bristol dealer offered me this on an elegance).

Does anyone have photos of the 18" trinity wheels allegedly coming to the scout?

 

Also - can anyone advise what "Off-road assistant" does,

 

 

Cheers!

If you do a factory order now it'll almost certainly be a post week 22 build now.
