My car was originally listed at just under £20,000 [41,000aud] (inc body kit & 18" wheels). By the time I saw it in the showroom it had been registered by the dealer for 2.5 months, it had 20 miles on the clock and it was discounted to £15,995. I managed to get them to drop to £15,500 [32,000aud].
It came with 6 months road tax = £100. I got them to include free mats = £40 - a tank of fuel = £62 - a second tank of fuel because they delivered it a couple of days late = £62 again. That's about it.
So, being kind to myself, I reckon I got for the equivalent of £4,760* [9,780aud] less than list price, which makes me quite happy :mrgreen: [/i][/size]

Over here (in Aus) If the dealer registers the car and keeps it for a month or two they call it a "demo" and when they clear it they save on some taxes which is generally passed on to the buyer. Don't know if that was the case with your car. Demos don't usually have such low mileage - but sometimes they do. I got some of my best deals that way. Thumper got a demo (and I assume a good price). I had a trade-in (which I tried to sell privately without any luck) so my deal was only average (I.M.O.)
Cheers,

iThink package (equivalent to SLX CRDi)
+ Cruise control
+ rear sensors
+ some other stuff like rubber carpets, first aid box...
127.000 HRK = 28.600 AUD = 13.900 GBP
I got it on the "Diesel for the price of petrol" offer.
(Offers like this are common here, due to fuel prices)

I received $2,000 off the final price. 8-)

2 grand off a Hyundai i30, a car with a minimum 12 week wait is good in my book.
How many K's did it have on the clock Thumper?
Post by: eye30 on July 06, 2008, 12:11:52
Only had 25 miles on clock. I'd done 10 in demo mode and told already had 6 when delivered to dealership.
Like i30manUK I got a few extra's - carpets, mud guards, 12 months road tax paid the difference from 6 month, nearly 3/4 tank of diesel, 50% off 1st service and a better than expected PX on my 7 year old Accent.
So all in I think I got around 20% off UK list.
Post by: Thumper on July 06, 2008, 12:48:09
So all in all, not too bad.

I didn't get much of a trade in (maybe I should have polished it - see the 'polish topic

I Like...."Before you criticise someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticise them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes."
Bit like my ex-wife... I encouraged her to take up exercise (a 5km run every night after tea..) it was a great idea she was 35kms away by the end of the week

I reckon you will get the 2 keys and probably the alloy spare without asking for them... fingers crossed!

I've gotten a quote of $29,200 for the SR auto with
Floor mats
Reverse Sensors
Metallic Paint
iPod Cable
Drive away
I'll get tint elsewhere
Good deal?
Post by: jay on October 25, 2008, 06:29:01
We got the price to 28500 with tint (the car in showroom had it), he checks with manager and comes back with another price, we said no so he checked manager again.. then at 28600 he went to check with hes manager again... he wanted more which wouldn't be much more of a saving than the existing quote from a nice dealer, so we left.. I didn't feel like waiting for the price to slowly go up. I don't have the patience for car buying! Probably going to buy it monday from nice dealer

Interesting, I made this post in july and since then the Krona has fallen day by day, so if I recalculate the prices towards the UK Pound and AUS $ now the price on my car is quite fair, I think.
Hyundai i30 1.6 manual petrol Style = £13,200 - 31,000 AUD
Sports body kit package + wheels + tint = £3,420 - 8,000 AUD
Total = £16,620 - 39,000 AUD
Discount = £2,000 - 4,660 AUD
Final Price = £14,620 - 34,340 AUD
Now I see why all the foreigners are coming here to buy cars, expensive cars :mrgreen:

I am a new member and new owner as of 28 November 2008! I paid $25,490 for a new SLX CRDi automatic model. Instead of a $1,000 Myer voucher the dealer gave me a cheque for $1,000 so I suppose you could say I paid $24,490. Not too bad of a deal I think. I only got a quarter of a tank of fuel unlike some of the other deals. Does anyone know how much the genuine ipod media cable is?

i30 SR Manual
- iPod Cable
- "Premium Mats"
- Boot protector
- Lock Nuts
- Full tank of gas
- none of their stickers or number plate stupidity :)
AU$26,500-
Could probably have gone Bluetooth but really didn't want them stuffing around with the A-Pillar. Had it come with a factory BT option I would have taken it, although I don't use my phone much in the car :) Was also thinking of the bonnet and headlight protectors, but in the end didn't bother...
Post by: Dazzler on May 30, 2009, 10:26:03
Bluetooth module on the sunvisor apparently works really well (a couple of brands available -search this forum)
I'm reckon headlight covers slightly reduce effectiveness of the headlights and bonnet protectors are a leaf catcher :cool:
