Limited Cupra's for UK?

[duckson]

Just got back from my local Seat dealer and was told by the salesman that they are only getting 11 Cupra's this year and every dealer is like this, very limited numbers available. Apparently a total of 750 are what the UK Seat dealers will only be getting this year.

Anyone know if this is right or wrong...?! I got the impressions it was designed for me to get signed up to buy one ASAP (i put my name down to drive their demo which they will get mid Feb).

The limits almost doubled then... it was rumoured to be 6 the other week

However, in 2004 SEAT said they would limit 6 LCR's per dealer per year. In the end they sold as many as they could lay their hands on (considerably more than 6 ea)

Cant see it working out really "sorry sir cant take your £19k plus options cos we've sold all 11 this year please come back next year" more like "put a deposit down now cos we only get 11 oh your my 14th sofar"

Supply and demand springs to mind. They will sell as many as ordered. I'm sure dealers will source from other dealers if needed

Yea this is what i'm thinking.....i had a LCR a couple of years ago and heard a similar tale of very limited supply!

That smells of total horse **** to be honest. An excuse from the dealer to give you a crap deal.
