Negotiating best price on pre-reg Fiesta

Hi,
I'm visiting my local Benfield Ford dealer this weekend, where they're offering pre-reg 'old' style Fiestas for £7490 (£3,500 of list price apparently). I've seen that Polar Ford are offering the same cars for £6999. I'm not v. experienced at haggling on cars, so what figure would more experienced people suggest I start negotiations at?
Thanks.
