Ask an expert

I've been looking for a while and have a fair idea of what I'm interested in sells for generally. Sometimes the advertised prices are more than the insurance will cover so clearly over valued. Obviously you can go armed with an AA valuation report although that's only going to tell you private rather than the security of buying through a dealer...

But if/once you do decide to set your heart on something how do you negotiate as a cash buyer to bring that price down to something more reasonable? Especially if the vehicle has been listed for over a month but maybe the price has only dropped a couple of hundred, surely they want you to take it off their hands?

Hi there,
We have an article on our website on this very idea: https://www.aa.co.nz/cars/motoring-blog/the-ultimate-guide-to-negotiating-with-a-car-dealer/
