Looking to get a new A2 for my new business in the new year.

My local Audi dealer has offered me a deal of £1450 deposit + £321 pm x 35 plus "Ballon [12K pa mileage]" for a Metalic Black 1.4SE TDi with full leather and climate control.

Is this good or could I do better elsewhere and if so where.

TIA.
 
Is the deposit 10%. If so then I presume the dealer is pricing the car at standard 1.4SE petrol new price. Add diesel and leather and the cost price looks quiet good. Can't comment on the rest though, but do ask the dealer what they expect the cars residual value to be, as if it is what Audi says it should be then monthly payments should be low as the A2 in three years will be worth loads (not).

Good luck.

Try HSBC car finance for another quote, I used them then went back to my Audi dealer and got them to match prices.

My A2 (2003 1.4 SE petrol + Met & CC, isofix) was £13,400,
deposit £2000
36 x £227
and final around £5500

Hope this helps, APR was 9.9% (started at about 15% first time I went to my dealer!)

Since I first asked this question and having spent a little time hunting around I have been offered the following.

A2 1.4TDi Sport, Metalic paint, full leather, climate control, cruise control and tow bar which I need for -

£1560 deposit plus £299 x 35 and a final payment of £6k,, the harder you ask the softer the price gets.
 
my experience of buying new cars is to get as many quotes as possible by phoning around and visiting, although you'll find it hard to start the ball rolling keep at it - each time you visit or phone you have to play it as though you're going to buy there and then --you'll be lucky if a dealer will give you any idea of a reduction without him thinking that.

once you have got a good idea of quotes go to your dealer (i chose 3 local dealers who i hadn't been in to see yet - i saved them for the real deal). i used the first to talk silly money and find out how low i can go where he'd let me walk out the door, the second i teased it a little higher still walking away/if he gives you a good price you still have to walk. By the time you go to the third you have a good idea of how much you want to pay. Get him to quote, tell him you've had lower (if you have) and make sure you tell him you will buy there and then if he gives you a good price.

Worked for me - you have to be prepared to make a bit of a git out of yourself! :)
 
Git or no Git,, money is money and it looks better in my bank than theirs.

I understand fully what you are saying,, actually it is fun seeing how much you can get them down to..

As I am really serious about a purchase and have a large deposit to use then I will play hard..
