I am shopping around for a new Defender and noticed a great deal of 2020 First Edition available on various lots. Having been a long time loyal customer and considering the glut of inventory I contacted my local dealer and they're not budging stating they're selling them over MSRP and can only offer me the $1k every other person is getting which is rather unfortunate news since usually in December I have received some of the best deals on the vehicles I purchase. The ones I am looking for all have an MSRP over $80k and supposedly "rare" but if there was any demand they would be gone by now, in my opinion. I am finding it difficult to purchase a vehicle for full price especially one that will be a year old in two weeks. Outside of Savaras; anyone else on here able to get a proper discount on their purchase?

Got my 2020MY Tasman blue HSE with a $1,000 dealer incentive and they even threw in $500 additional for being military. Paid sticker minus that $1500 total. Then I got 2.2 with my bank and they offered to try to match through Chase. Chase could only do 2.49. Went with chase to make it easier and they knocked the additional price off the car to make up the .29% difference overall. Easy work.

 

I picked mine this weekend. The dealers also gave me the $1000 allowance. I could get a better deal this year because of the crisis and all this stuff, but there was no case. The prices are higher, unfortunately. I thought about a discount, but unfortunately, nothing. If I were living in Europe, it could be better. Here you get a loan at 4 % interest from https://www.yhdistalaina.com/65000e-yhdistelylaina/ , and pay the total price.

 

I got the discount. So, go ahead with it if you want.

 

Now it has become difficult to buy a good car of low cost. And my wife and I also have a mortgage. There are two strategies for early repayment: shortening the term or payment. In the first case, you will pay off the debt faster, in the second-you will give less to the bank every month. It is impossible to say exactly which strategy is more profitable: you need to make calculations for a specific loan and see which option is preferable for you. When we decided to buy a new car, we turned to Mortgage Advice Essex to slightly improve the mortgage conditions. And they helped us.

 

Is the $1000 Allowance credit still offered/available?

 

no this was over a year ago before you had to wait 6 month or pay 5-25k over sticker for a wrongly spec’ed one on the lot

 

I have not heard of any discounting anywhere on Defenders---I am sure that there are rare exceptions. If buying one depends on getting a discount, I'd suggesting looking elsewhere.

 

Only discount you wil find is in secondary market if you want it now.
And- more importantly- speak w your mortgage broker before you make any large purchases. Last thing you want is your debt/income ratio thrown off and means either higher rate or denial. Might want to wait after closing to purchase.
