Deals Or No Deals? Thoughts After (limited) Freedom

To get any deals you have to be prepared to haggle or walk away when the deal doesn't suit you.

I've taken out a number of PCPs on my car, bikes etc to take advantage of any discounts.
Last ones were £1000+ savings for the car, @£700 on the last bike.
Then I cancel them within the cooling off period and still keep the discounted cost

Oh and I also buy my bikes in December when the dealer is trying to boost year end targets.

Only downside to buying in December just gone is that the bike is still in the garage after 5 months with 1.5 miles on the clock and the dealer did those 1.5 miles!

 

Yep I got caught this time on my bikes, both bought in November.

 

I have one simple rule. If I think it's not cheap enough I walk away.

 

Yep a good policy. The interesting thing though is that everybody's cheap is very different...

 

Very true mate!
At the end of the day if you've decided on a certain bike and it's the one you really want, just buy the feckin thing! Life's too short!

 

Absolutely mate, if you really want it you will always find a way to fund it

 

The Golden Rule is to discover that what you ‘wanted’ has, in fact, become an urgent ‘need’.

 

But you don't know what I want

 

i think the biggest losers in this will be the guys or galls that bought on pcp and lost their jobs can only really sell the bike back to the dealer with a sorry sir/madam the market has crashed and your bike is only worth 50% of the outstanding finance
