    £12k looks a good price to me.

    But a list price of £20,610?
    I presume the equipment tally is high.

    I think its well enough spec'd but a list price of north of £20K is "optimistic" to say the least.

    There seems to be an easy £4K of discount available for a brand new one

    I dont know why manufacturers dont put more realistic list prices on cars.

    1) Because they have to have an RRP
    2) Why do people put a price on a house?

    Not a criticism of your comment, just a thought.

    They are that far removed from reality now though its banal.

    I can understand a bit of movement but 20% is now commonplace.

    Likewise, with your house analogy, you tend not to be able to negotiate the price on a new house. Its generally a fixed price (plus extras). A preowned house / car, then yes, its down to agreement between what the owner thinks its worth and what a buyer is prepared to pay.

    A "good" car could be something at £1,000. It doesnt have to be expensive.

    If i was looking a hot hatch and had £1,000 to spend then a Clio 172 would be a good (great!!) car.

    You dont have to spend a fortune to get a good car. Likewise its subjective.

    That's odd as we did negotiate the price of our new house, successfully.
