Hi all, I am new to this forum, just a quick message to say hi to you all.
I am considering buying a disco3, and found a good deal on new-car-discount.com.
price wise, they are fantastic, they even out did my newcastle dealer on my part ex by 1000 quid.
But i am worried, does anyone have any experience dealing with them? are they reputable?
One thing I am slightly worried is that the vehicle registration issue (I’ve heard most vehicle they sell is pre-registered in large quantity in order to get big discount, but these vehicles can't change the ownership until the vehicle is about 6 month old, so if something happens, i'll not be the registerred keeper ). Is that true?
Any advice appreciated. Cheers

My HSE was only £300 more than there's and I bought from a main dealer. Shop around now for delivery before the end of the month and you should get a good deal provided you can meet the end of quater deadline to help them meet their targets. DS3 TDV6 HSE - Silver with Alpaca (old one) Gone

You should be able to get that discount from a LR dealer. I got nearly £3,800 discount on a new HSE. Matt

Rossleigh in Newcastle didn't give me any discount, and add to insult, they gave me the lowest Part Ex for my current car. Disco3 S they sell at £32,040 which is the list price anyway, and new-car-discount.com do them for £29,218, plus Rossleigh gave me almost 500 quid lower in part ex compared with new-car-discount.
so that's a £3322 difference.
has anyone used the new-car-discount outfit before here?

No, almost did as they were cheap but I didn't like the sound of the registration document thing, used Motorlogix in the end, no document hassles, just as price competitive and very helpful.
No part ex though.

I would push the dealer too ....do it at the end of the month when they are trying to achieve or beat their sales targets - they tend to be even more forthcoming with any discount then 
You should be able to achieve up to £4k off an 'S' and above......and also consider how easy it is to deal with a .com provider if the wheel comes off after delivery (excuse the pun) in comparison to a dealership  21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

the pre-reg for six months thingy, is all down in some form to lease/rental fleet type thing that allows for the VAT to be reclaimed in some form I think. I don't know the details however but if it's the full amount then that means then it's not as good a deal as it looks maybe?[/quote] and theeeeennn......???
