    What is your point if reference for a different price?

    Can you get elsewhere for less? Has it got something others haven't or is it missing something others have.

    A high/low demand colour.

    I would always seek to haggle but you need to have a firm basis for the price you wish to pay rather than just you want it for less.

    I walked away from a deal on a new car as although they offered a trade in price for the old car they could not meet the new price another location ( without trade in) offered.

    Final call before committing and they had been authorised to sell at the same price and honoured the trade in price.

    Made about £800 difference.

    In our experience you're paying more from Cinch but getting peace of mind. Within 1 week of our car being delivered, it needed £1400 worth of work, which they honoured under warranty with no question
