Dont know if I am allowed to ask on here but I really dont know if I might be getting a raw deal.
I have been quoted: Tiguan MY12 155 all inclusive on road for $49000 including leather seats, mud flaps, tinting and floor mats.
Does this sound reasonable? My dealer has one in stock and i could have it immediately. No trade.
Anyone with experience in the 155 market yet??? (please .....)
Base 155TSI in QLD should sell for 47,200 Drive Away.
Add leather (3,500), mud flaps and floor mats ($150 real value) and window tint ($300 real value) and you are ahead at 49k.
I used New Cars to get a pricing guide adn then went to the dealer with that.
Managed a 9% discount of RRP with little to no haggling and no memberships.
Wai - I dont know what this statement is talking about? What insurance are you referring to? I am looking at a MY12 155 Tiguan. There is no insurance mentioned in the quote.
Next, if you are organising a drive-away deal, the insurer (generally Allianz) offers a substantial "kick-back" to the dealer for signing you up to them. This can be a few thousand dollars ($2910 in my case).
For MY11, check if the dealer till have any qouta of the Sep Driveaway deal left... Sometime they do have 1 or 2... like i went with my frd 2 weeks ago to look a GTI, which passed the Oct Golf driveaway deal. but dealer still have some qoutas depends if that cars has the options u want.
Better to get a car they have in stock.. not much wait time, for u and salesman to close the case. MY11 stock should have to be cleared out. On my friends invoice, with on road cost and options totalled over 6k off the RRP and half price window tint.
I'd not pay for the dealer delivery. Free MDI, bluetooth, comfort pack...etc, since a lot of stocks already has those installed.
Remember!! Be prepared to walk away if the deal not as u wanted. Make them want the sales than u do.
First, check to see if you are a member of a group/association or a company that has a discount arrangement with VW Australia. Generally this is a 50% discount on dealer charges ($1495 in my case).

Next, it is when you go to make the deal. If you go during a sale, then you are not going to get too much because they have buyers lining up. You might try just after a sale as the sales guys have trouble meeting their monthly sales targets. If they don't they generally don't get paid.
Overall, you should be getting a minimum of 10% excluding any trade-in. On the trade-in, do some research on the Internet to see what the typical trade-in price is and the range. If the dealer wants to close the sale, they will give you a trade-in at the high end of the range, whereas if they do not want to close the sale, they will give you the minimum.
Ultimately it comes down to this. You have a car and would like to get a new one. The dealer has a new car that they must sell. If they don't then it costs them in financing it. Don't think that you have to accept the first price that you are given that has a discount on it.
You do not have to buy a car from your closest dealer. Apart from the initial service, ANY dealer can do the scheduled services and repairs under warranty.
Can anyone give me a guide as to what sort of discount I can expect to negotiate when buying a brand new Tiguan? I have received a quote of about 5% discount. I have never bought a new car and I am unsure how much bargaining power I have. Cheers.

With the incoming 2012 model, are people having much luck getting 'run out' deals or specials on the current models that are still in stock? My dealer informs me that new models are 6 months away at least ... which is quite a long time to wait! I'm a little undecided whether to wait for the new one or purchase now.
What would be a reasonable price to pay for a MY11, 125 TSI Tiguan (DSG) with comfort pack, bluetooth, reversing sensors, mats (of course) and tint? I was hoping 38k driveaway including 12 months registration would be realistic (or would I be paying too much)
Don't want leather and there is nothing with the xenon lights in stock.
I do have access to corporate discount which apparently is reduced dealer delivery + approx 1.5k discount.
And realistically, how much is the extended warranty?
Hi Surfergirl, I agree with the other posters. Good deal... may I ask which dealership you went to? And which salesman / saleswoman? I'm interested, in case I get a second one! Melb isn't too far away from Adl...
Thanks for your input! I was just wondering about the corporate discount that people are talking about on here. Is that normally applied from the rrp and not from internet price? The dealer mentioned something about how the price on carsales is not retail and it's already discounted. Please advise whether this is normal in australia. I am from the us so it's a different ball game here. Thanks in advance!
Welcome to the forums surfergirl! The $50900 is a good price for the specs you have there
I agree, asking 47k is probably going too far considering that is the base price for the car + leather only.
I would see if you can get it for 49k-50k, anything over that is just gouging imho.
