demo PRICE WHAT SHOULD I PAY for a demo?

Seen a dealer demo 3.0 GS with AUTO, met black paint, bright pack and folding mirrors for £33,995 with 8k on the clock.

What should I offer the dealer? Surely he would have written this down quite abit since september

Given that a brand new one from Motorlogix in that exact spec would cost £32967.25 I would try and haggle a bit or just order a new one.

The way to look at the deal is if you traded that car in with 8K on the clock the dealer would probably offer £26k-£27k and mark up to £30k.

These might be in short supply just now but £2k or £3k is not to be sniffed at!

Hi
Guess it depends if you are happy to wait and/or want to pay the extra £1k
Personally I'd rather pay £1k more and get a shiny new one (perhaps with some different/additonal options Wink ) that no-one else had "test driven" for 8k miles. Shocked

If Motorlogix are quoting £33k, then the dealer selling the demo paid a lot less than that (I'm sure LR provide incentives for dealer demo registrations just as other manufacturers do - at a guess they paid maybe £30k Question ), so if they got £34k out of you they are still turning a profit on a car that has been used for 8k miles Shocked which is just taking the micky, and even the £32k is high (interesting though how easily they knocked £2k off!!!).

I'd not touch an ex-demo other than at a substantial discount - just think how most of us treat a test drive... it's an opportunity to see just how the car performs without the worry of it being our own vehicle Laughing

Somewhere in the region of £28-30k would be realistic - don't be taken in by any artificial supply/demand issue at present, we've seen them before & they don't last Rolling Eyes If you can wait a couple of months, spec one up for yourself and shop around for the cheapest price whether Motorlogix or otherwise Very Happy , that way you have a brand new car and no worries of its history Very Happy
