Looks little more than Astra convertible to me. Saw an ampera the other day, disappointing in the flesh, quite small.

£20,995. :o :o :o :o

I'll wager that if you shop around you could pick up a 'brand spankers new one' for less than that.

Front discs look the size of shirt buttons with those big wheels.

The car in the link has a retail price of around £30,435.00 based on Vauxhall's configurator.. good luck getting 30% off from a car dealer!

According to the ad the MRRP is £28,030.

Sub £20,000 is a possibility if they have a few to shift. :y

Base price was ~£28k but the wheels & nav are optional extras .. the £30,450 came from Vauxhalls configurator with the options selected per the car in the advert.

I've certainly never managed to get more than a few percent off the price of a new car. Must be doing it wrong :(

Ah....they see you are exceedingly wealthy and adjust the price accordingly. ;D ;D

This guy isn't going to quibble over a few grand here or there....is their thinking. :)

Garages used to get much higher margins they they do now. The manufacturers learn't they could make more money by slashing them and that few people buy cars on the price of spares. ::) ::) ::) ::)
