Yeah i had to do the same distance to Adelaide 800k return x 2 it's a pain thats for sure. I believe 32k is a fair price so hopefully they come to the party, Good luck mate.

FYI
I got my 08 CRD with 123K on the clock for $28K. Down from $31k. I also had a trade in which I got $3k for.
so I only had to hand over $25k for it which I was happy with.
yep Neil, i would be pushing hard and going in at 28k with bonnet protector, floor mats cargo barrier etc etc and let them take a bit extra from you but not much and make sure you get the extras as it wont cost them much to supply them as the barrier they will take out of another vehicle. if you need assistance with the negotiation let me know mate i love sticking it to car sales people :)
Stropp,I went in swinging this morning mate.told them there was no negotiation and the car is still at the same price as advertised..i asked for on road to be included and they dropped the price of my trade in by 1500 bucks..then he hang up on me....................so I randg the office got put through to him again and give him some more...told him I belong to a nation wide forum Nissanpatrol.com.au and had the car linked and people where watching and giving advice and to what it was worth...he did change his tune remarkably...so I can have the car for 32 which is what I wanted...it was at 37 990 online 34 490 so at 32 I think it ok...Wonder how much I would get for my GQ,not as a trade in but just sell it...Don't really need 2 4wd..i don't want to but it makes sense.
sounds better Neil but i would still go the bonnet protector and cargo barrier mate as i said they will have a pile of them out the back so no cost to them, if they agree on a price without the dealer manager getting involved then you havent hit them hard enough (well thats my thoughts anyway) mate try for the extra couple of bits anyway i hate letting them get too much, end of the day if you are happy go for it but dont drop the trade in price. when i bought mine it was advertised for 35 and i got it for 30k :) when the dealer principal says no then you have gone in too low :)
edit if he doesnt want to deal call the used car manager.
should have got you in there with me mate.
think I'm going to pull the pin on it tomorrow..after 2 days of bullsh!t still only getting it from 34 490(oline price) to 32 000 but then they dropped my trade in again to 15 000 and I pay onroad costs...hmmmmm so when I sat down and worked it all out...they have dropped it 1 304 bucks.....farkem I reckon..more will come by...either that or I ring the sales manager but I can't be bothered running around in circles..bit hard way down here and today I had 2 20 min breaks all day as we where running fertilizer through irrigation...so was writting sh!t down while on the phone and not thinking clearly...not till I knocked off and go through it I think...Wayneker assholeie.......
Might just sit back a bit take hold of the situation,go to the bank sort out a loan then go on the hunt again...In all honesty I was hoping to get back on the meetup in the middle trip but I can't rush this shitt and go buy something just for the sake of that one thing....Easy grasshopper easy....
Too right, keep punching till the stuffing falls out of their good bags.Quote:

Mate think it over and call the manager, let him or her know what's happened and give them the deal you want and see what happens, worst thing is you are looking for another car, best thing you own one on your terms, also look at the ones at the auction sites over here, some good deals to be had.Quote:

I find it alot easier and better haggling with a dealer than a private seller that s for sure.
When I bought a 2 year old Xtrail back in 2005, was advertised for 34K, got it for 29k on the road. Didnt pay a deposit either . Also they orignally only wanted to give me 13k for my car, I wanted 17K but we settled on 15k, which I was ok with............ the missus wasn't amused lol.
It's much easier to deal with them face to face rather than over the phone for sure Neil and we know that unfortunately you dont have that luxury.
Keep an eye out, another will come along and when it does, we'll need to pounce bud
so after much too-ing and fro-ing I refused to ring them yesterday and guess what,they rung me last night(late night car shopping in perth)told them I wasn't interested as I had spent 2 days getting nowhere fast.Asked what would make me happy so I said $30500 and they accepted,off to the bank today and hopefully(fingers crossed i will get it before the weekend)Another frigging trip to the city.
wish me luck......i am now Patrolorized.
to everyone that joined in and said this or that thanks,gave me the confidence to stick it to them,sh!t when i bought the ford i just went in paid 7 grand deposit and financed what they were asking..DOH...i may have learnt something
2010 gu7 MY10 st....I'm happy
