Even if it was the courtesy car then it would have only been this for a short while as they tend to us new ones to rty and help shift stock. It is only the indis that use older cars. I have know a few managers/sales people who are more than happy to use their discount tpo buy them selves a nice car.

Hora, I think that shows that my option 3 is a pretty good deal. Less miles newer, better trim.
Pic 5 raised my eyebrows...This one doesn't feature in my search and I'd like to know why, as I'm in Sheffield and it's certainly within 60 miles. Looks like a Zetec with the Ghia Sound System. It competes with my option 1.

Ok, option 3.
Ford Direct offers a 2yr used warranty on their cars. Make sure yours comes with this- as it is 'used by the sales manager' so it must be a 'Ford' car? If they would give you the 2yr warranty (in writing) AND drop the price- say option 1 is expecting you to sign at 4.30 today and what could they do instead?
Ive experienced Ford sales staff twice- they wont be offended- the harder you are the more they'll respect you.

Scrub that, it's in there now. Must ne new in.Numero 3 is not a Ford Direct car (not sure what the criteria are) so doesn't get the 2 year warranty. Gets balance of manufacturers till June 30th and gets anything it needs to pass it's MOT fixed for free for 2 years. I'm yet to confirm the usage it's had.
As for the haggling, I'm British don't you know. I don't enjoy the haggle, tbh it's not in my blood. I'm too honest and I think they can smell my fear.
I don't mind finding legit reasons to get the price down (he's come down from 8499 to 8250) but apart from that if I didn't like the deal I would rather look elsewhere than lie.
The car has been fully valeted (as you would expect), has had a couple of minor scratches filled in nicely, will be serviced, MOT'd, taxed, has a decent set of Ford mats. Looks the dogs now and I'm fairly happy. The deal isn't done yet though. I had to work late tonight so no test drive yet and I haven't seen it in daylight either. That will happen this week.
