Since you stsrted it why dont you share your deal first... that might make others open up.... obviously the date you got the deal also helps

I would for sure , but l haven't purchased one yet.I got this idea from one of the Tiguan threads, where everyone is willing to share their deals they got. I got heaps of information on that thread , and was able to get a great price on my 2017 Tiguan RLINE which l just ordered. Which l got 9% off. Now l have to look for new car for work , and l quite like the Skoda superb with tech pack and luxury pack.

Ok.. I will kick it off.... February 2017 --- priced a MY17 Skoda Superb Hatch/Sedan 206 with tech and luxury packs, metallic paint, plus official towbar (the factory swingaway option is not available in australia but an official one is) which has an rrp of $61,930. I offered $56.5k and was quoted a whopping $500 off the rrp with a model sitting on the floor that they "had to get rid of"... After I refused the deal of the century I was told by the sales manager "You obviously cant afford it" which ensured the dealer never got any further in the negotiations.

Rang 2 other dealers located in Brisbane on a Saturday. One has never called me back to this day. The other met my offer within a few hundred dollars with stock landing in Brisbane within 2 weeks that matched my order. No testdrive, no time invested. Easiest Superb sale they made that month I bet and all because someone else was a rude pig.

My understanding of the dealer pricing is that an optioned vehicle (options have higher margins) on standard demand models (ie.. hot models just released where demand exceeds supply will get you little or no negotiations) have up to 10% they can negotiate. The exact percentage will vary depending on make and model. The best time is at the end of the month or end of the quarter where a dealer might negotiate heavily and make little to nothing on a sale if it means it triggers a bonus payment... ie they might take a puny $1000 profit if they hit a $15,000 bonus payment because they sold 15 superbs that month. (Example only)

I know if I was willing to accept a MY16 model I could have got it lower as a few dealers were still holding stock but I chose the MY17. Also, if I accepted a demo I could have got it better again... and a MY16 demo best of all. But I recommend you stay away from the demos... they get flogged senseless and abused... but abuse is a reason to fail warranty claims and abuse prior to your purchase cannot be isolated so when the gearbox fails and warranty is refused that few thousand you saved buying a demo will not mean anything. If i did not get all the options I did then then percentage wise I would not have got the same discount.

As to the car itself... fantastic.... highly recommended...

As you get later in the year my18 will become an option for you which means my17 will become easier to negotiate on.

Thanks for your input, l wonder what the lead times are like if you order. The bloody tiguans Rlines are like 6-8 months.

I picked up a 2016 162tsi wagon, metallic paint, comfort and tech packs, factory roof racks, 5 year warranty/3 year free service plus a few other goodies for $44,500. Was their demo + dealer famil car (car the sales guy drives as personal vehicle for a few months so they know the car well) with 3000kms on it from a dealer that was ceasing to be a VW/Skoda dealer.

After driving it ~400kms home it was clear why the numpties couldn't sell cars: Still had the suspension lock out pucks in the front struts that should be removed at the post delivery inspection, so basically drove like it had no front springs at all. Several complaints to VW/Skoda Aus customer care got me a free wheel alignment and suspension inspection and an assurance that future warranty claims would be honoured, but I guess that goes to the previous poster's point about not knowing what idiot has driven your car for the first few months of its life. That said I'm still very happy with the car and have had no further problems.

You were able to isolate the abuse and put them on notice with it... hopefully it does not turn into an issue for you but it appears you have done all you can
