Morning All

Whats the best time to buy a new car from a dealer?  ( Mercedes, BMW ).
Lots of people have mixed views on this subject so was hoping to clarify this once and for all.

so far iv heard :
1) End of the month
2) Wait for after Christmas?

Any other suggestions?

 

Thanks

BinaryLimited:Do you know what date /date they do their "end of month" calculations?


This seems to vary a little between dealers, unfortunately. It is typically around about the calendar month, but it's often offset a few days either side. I often find that if I approach them early-mid month, then say I'd like to think about it for a few days, they tend to ring back around their month-end time to try and close the sale within that sales month. Can be a good time to them negotiate.
