Broker prices too good to be true?

Greenen28

Been looking into buying a new SEAT Leon online (ie the MK3 set for release in March). The model I'm interested in lists for 16790 excluding options and I've found one broker (broker4cars.co.uk) offering a 3849 discount taking this below 13000 even if I choose to buy outright. Anyone any dealings with this company and is this price likely to be correct?! Sounds way too big a discount especially for a new model...

Thanks

Well, you know the phrase... if it seems to good to be true, then it usually is. However... reviews for this Broker for Cars seem rather good.

Take a read of those, of course there's no saying whether your experience will be good/bad but they seem pretty decent. But, proceed with caution. Brokers can often be a good way of getting the cost down on a new car.

We bought our new Golf through carfile - I was a bit nervous as we had never done anything like that before but it turned out brilliantly and completely painless. Saved about £3k on the car and it was delivered to our door and the VW dealer even took our old car in part exchange, giving us an average price without seeing it. So we didnt have the hassle of selling the old one.

On top of that, when you buy distance you have 7 days to refuse the car, a big plus over buying in the show room.

Cant recommend them enough and they have 5 stars for customer service: email them re the car you want or give them a ring.

I bought a Mazda through a broker and got a smidge over £4k off. No problems with the transaction whatsoever. Deposit was paid by credit card to the supplying UK franchised dealer. No money was paid to the broker whatsoever - the payment of the broker is a matter between the dealer and the broker.
