Internet Advice
I'm looking for a new car and I have found one near where I live. It's a 1.6 Diesel Fiesta for £6K but website says thats a 2.5K reduction on what it was before. Is this likely to mean the car is a bit shit or have I just found a bargain?

Edit - if you know nothing about cars what's your favourite type of cake?

Have you ever bummed in a Fiesta?

Nope!

Could be anyone of a number of things...
Is the car pre-registered? Are Ford about to update the Fiesta, making this one a 'old' model? Is it lacking in any optional extra's that most people would think are standard? Is it an ex-demo car?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Mon 15 Feb 2010, 13:52, Reply)

They updated teh Fiesta last year so it is an old model, there aren't many of the 1.6 disels around though.
I think it's reasonably kitted out, certainly everything I need Power Steering, ABS, air con and electric windows and mirrors.

Get an AA / RAc inspection
they cost around £150, or did last time I got one. That way you pay a professional to tell you if you're getting a good deal or not, and if you're paying that sort of money, it makes sense.

Also check the service history looks kosher - look for wear on seats, gearstick (hush your filthy minds) that might show it's had more use than the miles / age would indicate.

( K2k6 has a proper job these days, Mon 15 Feb 2010, 14:16, Reply)

I assume it's a private sale (not from a garage)
in which case be careful. There's probably something very wrong with it if it is £2500 under list price.

Go and see it, give it a test drive, ask about service history etc etc.

No it's from a Ford dealership

(Bazongaloid, Mon 15 Feb 2010, 14:25, Reply)

Oh...
I assume they sell it with a 3mth warrenty then. Might be a bargain, probably a car they had in part exchange for a new model and they want to get rid of quickly.

Give them a call and arrange a test drive.
( Colonel Dracula Two manky hookers and a racist dwarf, Mon 15 Feb 2010, 14:30, Reply)

Alright, I will.

(Bazongaloid, Mon 15 Feb 2010, 14:30, Reply)

Nice one.
Just remember that 10,000 miles a year is acceptable mileage, anything over that should set alarm bells ringing.
( Colonel Dracula Two manky hookers and a racist dwarf, Mon 15 Feb 2010, 14:36, Reply)

It's about three years old and it's done about 32K. Which is fine
Buying a high mileage car isn't a bad thing though, since I will be doing very few miles per year, ex fleet cars are often good deals, but at the moment with the recession they are getting rare as people realised it wasn't worth changing car every couple of years.
(Bazongaloid, Mon 15 Feb 2010, 14:41, Reply)

I do high mileage
It doesn't mean much if the car's been looked after. In some ways, a high mileage car can be a better buy, because it's probably not been driven around town much, or left to sit for days on end without being driven.
( K2k6 has a proper job these days, Mon 15 Feb 2010, 14:56, Reply)

Don't forget the recession...
I know it's an easy cop out thing to mention, but I doubt as many people have been buying new cars as they were last year, or the year before.

Maybe the garage have turned to the way of thinking 'Selling a car cheap, is better than not selling it.' - They do have wages and stuff to pay remember.


If I can give some advice based on experience though;

A couple of years ago, I got a decent amount of compensation for a bad thing that happened to me and decided to put it towards a 'decent' car (i've always had bangers up to then). When I say decent, I mean relatively new, reliable, comfortable and fast. Just like I've always wanted.
After much deliberating, I found it was actually better value to buy a 'shit' car for a couple of hundred quid and run it 'til it died. Then buy another shit car, and do the same with that. A couple of them I've even sold for scrap, at a profit.

I still have half the money left, 2 years down the line.
(Colonel Santiago Introduced surprised kitty to the world., Mon 15 Feb 2010, 14:35, Reply)

I drive a shit car at the moment.
I don't like it. It's uncomfortable and noisy and it's costing me more to insure than it's really worth. I think the "buy a shit car and run it until it dies" can work, but you need to know a bit about cars so that you don't drive it away and have the engine fall out. I know nothing about how cars really work so I have a couple of garages I trust and I want to buy off a dealership so that if something horrific goes wrong I've got someone with a reputation to lose if I kick up a big stink.

Edit - did the bad thing involve bumming? Were you an actor in Hollyoaks?
(Bazongaloid, Mon 15 Feb 2010, 14:40, Reply)

I don't have a fear of lynx cans,
if that's what you're insinuating...

EDIT: Also, you have a garage you can trust? I've been looking for one of those for years. Every time I find one, they're great for a year and then fucking shaft me over something shit.

I think the best kind of cake is your own birthday cake, a plain victoria sponge, home-made, covered in icing covered in sweets and icing-pen, where you can draw whatever you like on it.

I also like Carrot cake with yoghut-frosting.

All cake should have some sort of melty bit, doesn't matter what kind of melty bit, and warm, oh man, warm cake is great.

If you've got a 6 grand budget
why don't you see if you can grab a bargain under the scrappage scheme? (Assuming your 106 is 10 years old.)
Also have you checked the proper book price for the Fiesta? Dealerships often "pre-load" the price in the first place to make the "discount" look more impressive.

Some do
but this car is three years old. I've looked at it, and I just don't have enough to spend to get a car that qualifies.

There're a couple of dealers around here
who apply the scrappage scheme to second hand cars, it's very recent.

Noo Yoik cheesecake kicks arse
It's well better than any car. Any any any car.

My favourite cake is chocolate cake, none of this healthy carrot cake bollocks!

I don't understand carrot cake
However, I don't very often go to the extremes of chocolate cake either.

And hello!

Alright there! :D
I don't understand carrot cake either, its like fruit cake, it just shouldn't be.

I am currently eating a Tunnock's Caramel, I feel like I should be at my nans house, I get force-fed them there! :)

My great grandma was a bugger for the Tunnock's
My Nana doesn't have nana foods though :(

Hehe
Awww that's not right, she should try and force-feed you a choc-ice everytime you visit, thems the nana rules!

Nah, she makes you a badly-constructed cheese cob
or egg and chips
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Mon 15 Feb 2010, 15:53, Reply)

Aww chips and egg

i bloody love carrot cake
don't tell me it's healthy! :(
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Mon 15 Feb 2010, 15:42, Reply)

I'm not going to lie to you...
...there is a high possibility that it is healthy! I apologise.
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Mon 15 Feb 2010, 15:46, Reply)

It's got tons of butter and sugar in
it's not healthy.

I'm sure the cream cheese on top must have carolies and fat in, too

( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Mon 15 Feb 2010, 15:47, Reply)

I've just checked on Parkers
and the list price for that car is only 7K anyway, so the 2.5K reduction is probably just window dressing to make it look a better deal than it would normally appear.

How's you?

( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Mon 15 Feb 2010, 15:53, Reply)

Ah sneaky
I see they are playing a clever game here. You should call them up and offer a £1, then offer £3k, then offer £10k, then offer £100, then tell them you don't understand how to haggle, maybe they'll give the car to you even cheaper to make you go away! :D

I'm good thank you mr, frazzled, but good! :)

Will just about get you a new Kia Picanto

or if you push it with some keen haggling and a leniant trade in you might get an affordable price on a new Kia Rio


WTF, Kia! you may say.

But they have a 7 year/100,000 mile warranty. Not to be sniffed at.

The only nice Kia is the Kia Cee'd
but I would agree with you that the 7 year/100,000 mile warranty is a bloody deal!
