Price now vs in 4 weeks time - wideboy
I'm looking at a 55 Micra up for £5000 at a main dealer and they don't seem keen to move on price.

The question is what is the price on this likely to drop to after the new reg trade-ins ahve flooded in??

Will it move at all??

I have asked and they say the 'price won't change' but I would have thought it would??

Any advice from anyone would be appreciated.

John

Towards the end of the month of March "some deals could be done" - if the dealer has had a good month and the yard round the back is brimming with trade-ins there could be a deal to be had.

On the otherhand he will be quiet with new cars this month and might want to do a deal to free up some space on the forecourt / backyard for next month!

It seems expensive, depending on the model, given that pre-registered Ford Ka's were going for that price not long ago. (Dagenham Ford and maybe elsewhere.)
