Downsides of a delivery mileage car?

Op, have you tried Ford direct.co.uk. I don't know if they are any cheaper than what you have been quoted but they certainly helped me get a better deal.

Dealdrivers have cars in stock, it's worth a try. I've just used them to buy a Mazda2 which is a rebodied Fiesta

Thanks, yes, i had a look last night and saw their stock cars:D. Sent them a message, so will see what they say when they get back to me.



Have looked at Forddirect, but they didnt have anything meeting my spec, and dont seem to offer finance..

Thanks for the pointers.

A pre-reg is likely to be a pre March build,Fiesta Titaniums built before March don't have ESP (worth £300),Bluetooth + USB (£200) or the Sony (can't remember if it's a DAB) CD player (approx £200) as standard,might want to take this into cosideration when considering the price difference for a pre-reg. I was checking 5dr Titanium availability for a customer yesterday and I'm sure there were plenty of 1.6tdci's available,as long as your not too specific on colour and options etc. If you want to PM me the exact spec you're after I can check for you tomorrow.

No worries, I'm pretty sure I know where the car is coming from, I won't say as it's frowned upon, but you will have no issue with the supplying dealer (if it's a Ford/Mazda).

:j:D Well, i yesterday picked up my brand spanking new sea grey 1.6 tdci fiesta titanium. I LOVE it! Very very pleased indeed. Drives beautifully, looks great, hd the updated 95ps engine, as well as updated sony radio.
Very pleased with the end price. £13,250OTR inc metallic paint, spare steel wheel and rear parking sensors.
Would highly recommend Drivethedeal to anyone, great prices, very smooth and easy to deal with.

I am looking at the second hand market but using new prices to try and judge where the priceas should be.

I see OJ has an article on cheap deals yesterday promoting drivethedeal

Yes, again drivethedeal comes up with a storming deal like mine! I got the email update from DD yesterday, and saw the base price from them had come down a smidge. But not upset as the £12,598 would still need the extras i wanted added and metallic paint, so would now come to £13,298, and as i got a nonregistered new features stock car, instead of having to wait a few weeks for delivery, then all round happy!

Go DD!:j
