Limited Edition end of run LCR?

[aphix]

To see the LCR out with a bang it would be nice for SEAT to maybe offer a limited edition run of 2000 cars, along similar lines to the 25th anniversaryh golf.

Maybe up the BHP, special recaro seats, short shift gear box, carbon fibre interior trim or something, differnt wheels, slightly lower suspension with firmer rear... 2-3 special colours.

At a fixed price with maybe a track day thrown in?

I think there all done arnt they? Just stock to get rid off. If they did do any limited edition parts id be straight down to the stealer to see what they look like and if i want them in mine!

Yup - production ceased some time ago

 

[aphix]

well thats my plan down the toilet ... they should of done something though..

Most likely couldnt because thats what audi did with the last lot of TT's. And audi dont like seat copying them!

Most likely that marketing suggested (rightly) that they could clear the end of run without problem. The 'specials' are lower down the range where they are putting out FRs with LCR kit.

There was a rumour a while back that there was going to be a special ltd. edition but it never surfaced.

a nice 240bhp version with dimming interior rear mirror, cruise control, electric memory half leather & half alcantara recaro's, satnav, tracker, R32 arb's, floppy wipers, xenons with washers, brushed alloy dash panelling, steering wheel controls and a limited edition dash badge (numbered). And all for under £20k would have been nice. Greedy...moi?!?!?!

Must hurt anyone thats just bought one to find the RRPs dropped to £15555
Theres still afew about too according to my local dealer who had just sold the black one he had in minutes before i got there at a discount on the new price too. ouch.

 

[aphix]

the dealer i went too today had 2 used LCR's, standard spec...one was an 05 and one was a 55 and they where 15495 and 15995

What do you think are the chances of negotiating a price on a new one?

Should i just accept the price they are quoteing on seat.co.uk or haggle a bit?

(thats for a new one)

i haggle over a bag of chips mate, ALWAYS haggle,i asked for more discount on my new camera yesterday,i wanted more than half price and memory thrown in.i didn't get it,but at least i asked,you'll never know if you don't

At the end of the day its a NEW RRP so no different than if it was the original price. I expect the dealers margin is still the same at 8% on them if there not getting extra bonus on top of that to shift old stock for SEAT which i expect they probably are. So haggle.
