Car discount

I am going to buy two new cars from a dealer at the same time, both on PCP I would imagine.
What sort of discount on the list price is considered good/acceptable, or within the range that others have received.

I don't often buy new cars, and I am going to buy new ones this time, so could do with some assistance as to what is considered a good deal.

Thanks in advance.

    Get a copy of What Car and look at the target price, could also look at online brokers such as drive the deal as they can be uber competitive.

    Make and model would help...
    You might get 25% off a Citroen, but zero off a Porsche: there is no average discount.

    Look up the prices being offered on CarWow, DrivetheDeal and Broadspeed.

    Ask your dealer to price match, and if he cant / wont then use the broker with the best price.
