It's just possible that in 2or3months time I will be in the market for a new FFRR. Been doing a bit of homework on prices and specs, etc. main dealer price for the new Westminster model in standard form is just short of £70,000 while Buyacar will supply the same car for £62627, a saving of mor than 10%. Has anyone any experience of buying like this and of any pitfalls in doing so, all similar sites seem to offer new cars from main dealer sources and say there is no problem with warranty claims or servicing when taken to a local dealer to be done, is this the case? Are main dealers when approached directly in a position to offer discounts on new prices or are the rigid on this? Thanks in advance.  Agueroooooooooo. 93-20
I swear you will never see anything like this ever again....watch it..drink it in.

I haven't bought new for over ten years, so it might be a little different now: the car broker simply arranged the deal with his pet authorised dealer and I collected, and paid for, the car in the dealer's showroom. The sales receipt was issued directly to me in my name by the dealer. 2003 4.4 HSE Epsom Green / Sand. Lovely!

I have bought in the past from autobytel and broadspeed - vehicles were supplied by franchise dealers (Nottingham and Derby) and were uk cars with full warranty and no problems with my local dealer

On one occasion my local dealer matched the internet deal to keep my business so worth asking  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Still hoping for a S2 one day!

In addition to brokers, it can't do any harm to contact a few dealers - after all, that's ultimately who's selling you the car.

I knew I'd done well with the broker when my local dealer looked disbelievingly at my price and said "we don't even buy them in for that". 2003 4.4 HSE Epsom Green / Sand. Lovely!

When I bought mine new last year, i did exactly the same. Found loads of online brokers around 5 to 10k cheaper.

So I went to my local dealer, told them what i wanted and at the prices I've been offered & they matched it.
Saved about 10k in the end.

NEVER pay full list price, you should get a good deal on a current model especially with the new model looming......
Just be fair & honest with your dealer & they ought to be helpful.

Whilst I've not yet used them, Meant to say, I would contact LPR on here as they seem to have really good feedback & have offered some very good prices in the past
