Buying a new Vauxhall from Holland or dealer

You might even consider minimising the fuss, and buying from a UK car broker.

I have created a list, which can be found via my previous post at:

Hope this helps!

Why don't you try https://www.trade-sales.co.uk

I bought Laguna from there a year ago, was a Dutch one but British spec, no hassle, just looked at it on forecourt, said yes 4 days later was mine saved 6 grand. Went to Renault dealer who quoted me £19,600 I paid £12,500.

None of those hassles quoted above ;D

And no I have nothing to do with the Trade sales, just a happy customer. They are based in Slough by the way.

We had warranty issues within the 1st two years...
Something to do with a broken shock absorber
Anyway, we took the car to the local Vauxhall dealership and they promptly replaced the parts free of charge - yes FREE

The Vauxhall Zafira is now six years old and is still nice to drive - but we do intend changing it in the next 12 months
With a crappy rate on the euro (£ = 1.22€ 09/08/08) it is no longer viable to buy new cars from Europe
I have no problems/hangups about buying new cars from abroad
