Dealer Approved Pricing

tekie

I'm on the market for a car, decided to go for civic. I know dealer approved are bit more expensive, but I need piece of mind and don't want to worry about anything for at least the first year.

I've found 2 cars similarly priced at 2 different dealerships with the same price tag. First one is 2010 civic with 10k on the clock where as the second one is a 2009 civic with 30k on clock. I've checked parkers premium valuation as well. the 2009 model is exactly the same as Parkers valuation. But the 2010 model is 1000 pound cheaper.

I'm a bit confused, coz if its a dealer used I was expecting the newer model to cost more but both are priced the same and cars are identical in specs even the metallic paint n I've compared them using Honda compare. Absolutely no difference in spec

Before I call the 2010 civc car dealer, what shall I look/ask for. Obviously I do want to go for the newer model, but I want the experts opinion on this.

The newer one could just be priced to sell.

Are there any other models from other sellers at similar prices?

I was advised that parkers price guides are not well regarded as accurate these days.

Glasses Guide is the one dealers use, not Parkers. See if you can find what GG says from a friendly dealer.
