Where to buy a MK2 Leon Cupra? Best deals?

[SeanyK]

Hey folks!

I might be joining you Leon owners soon - I have owned 2 Ibiza Cupra's in the past, one a 2001(mk3) and a 2006(mk4) both lovely cars.
I may be selling my Ibiza Cupra soon though, as I really like the Leon Cupra.

I've seen a few around (I only want one in black) just wondered in this state of economy are the dealers doing good deals? I went to the local dealer and was basically told it would be £19,000+ for a new Cupra - quoting me straight from the catalogue!

If that's the case i'd obviously look at 'nearly new' , what do they go for, 12k?13k? lower mileage ones?

Thanks in advance!

Speak to Irfan at Seatcarsdirect (they have their own section here)
I am sure the can sort you out with a good deal

The way things are financially at the moment, there is absolutely no way you would want to pay the list price. By all accounts Irfan seems to be the cheapest for a new car.

I wouldn't recommend going new on a Cupra in the current climate they loose too much money.

You could get a year old one for around £14K at the moment, maybe even less as they don't seem to be shifting at all.

I just picked mine up from a seat dealer, 57 plate with 6k miles for £13.5k well pleased!

thats a good deal , what extras you get?

I got the mp3/ipod kit, believe the bi-xenons where standard on the earlier cupras but the dealer re-sprayed the wheels dark grey for me as they had a few minor scratches on them! plus ordered me the new all black grill so very happy!

i was expecting tbh cupras at rock bottom prices from when i got mine in july 08 , mine was feb 08 registered , side skirts ,xenons , rear spoiler , mats, full tank fuel , bluetooth 4k miles and delivered to my door from crewe (i live in london so bout 200 miles) paid 16k. (pre credit crunch)

Oh he gave me a full tank of petrol plus mats aswell, well hopefully do the side skirts and spoiler soon! yeah this one was up for £15495 before christmas but they aint selling right now so can be had for cheap .. i bet towards summer and 2010 they will probably be going for £11-12K

This is a good price and you'll find some have extras too. Just go else where to get it serviced if you don't like AC.

You should try owning an RX-8

Mmmmm, I like those. Depreciation will make you think twice IMO. Local Mazda dealer (Before I decided on a Focus RS), was selling a brand new and unregistered RX8-R3 for £18995. It's a shame that as soon as you turn the key and drive it away, it will loose a further £8K in the first year again...

Thanks for the input guys, i'll speak to Arnold Clark about one...

RCS> Thanks mate, although when im spending that much, i'd rather get a new one or nearly new with less miles, my current car only has 20k on it and its 3 years old.
