kindalen

hi all,
am looking at buying a 2008 ford mondeo econetic, most seem to be about £12k mark. what sort of discount could i expect to get off these? anyone know of any better deals?am willing to travel for a good deal.

thanks.

is the Econetic the one with slightly lower ride height and smoother bumper and undertray? 1.8 petrol?

sorry,its the 1.8tdci diesel.it is a low co2(139) car. my eyes are falling out of my head from looking at the net al day...

I read a review of it in topGear magazine two months back and they didn't rate it too much to be honest. might aswell just have a standard Mondingo.

am importing it to ireland,and the low co2 rating makes it much cheaper to import and tax(about half price!).

Funnily enough the value of the car would depend on the condition &


MILEAGE!!!!!!!

cheers,but wasn't asking about sticker price. am wondering what % discount i could expect to get from a dealer in uk. as i live in a different country i'd like to get a feel for the local market and its haggling norms.

thanks.

It doesnt work like that.

Some dealers will price their cars well to sell, some will price them expecting to get as much as possible.

cheers,will ring around and see what i can do.

Have a look on a site that gives you an idea for trade in, private sale & dealer sale figures. List the mileage from 15k-100k so you will know roughly if your eing ripped off or not.

cheers,will have a look at parkers.
