wakey wakey · 23rd October 2010, 05:35 PM

been to get a qashqui today cant get one for 6 mnths waiting list, so i decided to look at the ford kuga anyone got one or what yas think?

on a side note i fuckin hate car salesman! just totally tried to have my eyes out brand new kuga on forecourt 22k had a bit crack on and he said hed dee is exactly same model on kuga 2.0 turbo diesel ztec, with app pack and 18" alloy wheels hoyed in free for £20995 so i thought that sounds alreet got home looked on for website and they have exactly same model on special offer for £19495 so not only has he added stuff on hes also charged us for the extras what he said were free! really annoyed feel like asking to deal with someone else now! has anyone got any experience on how much is acceptable to haggle off a brand new car?

The kuga is overpriced, the qashqai is far better value for money.

If you wanna know a target price, get top gear magazine and check the target price listings at the back.

Aye, we cant make the Qashqai quick enough at the moment, the demand is just too high.

Should be fun seeing how we are gonna cope with the demand for the Juke, should it continue to be as popular as pre orders/current sales suggest.

Are you sure the waiting list is that long, is there not loads parked round the back?

I bought a Qashqai Jan 09 when they were flogging them all off,paid £12,400 for a 2.0 DCi N-tec,best car i've had,you might as well wait marra,order one now and in six months hopefully the winter/bad weather will be gone,especially seeing as you get the Nissan discount.

Think we make about 1000 of them a day. No sooner do they get parked "out the back" before being shipped off to port of tyne for export to Europe.

Wait list was 3 months not so long ago but i know demand has been steadily increasing.
