Dealers in the North East?

JazzJPH · 05-30-2011, 10:39 PM

Now then.

Does anybody know of any places that sell decent cars at decent prices? Or are generous when you take a trade in?

basically I have to sell my car privately (cos I'll get nowt off dealers for Cat C) and I also will have to get rid of the gammy little Punto I have as a run around. I'd probably part ex the Punto providing I get over £500 for it. But I don't want to pay the ridiculous prices that dealers have.

Just wondering if there are private sale prices at a dealers in the NE.

Mainly aimed at Trem/John here

Jazz is it not worth you keeping the 307 until you renew your insurance next year??? you only got about 6 months left havnt you ????
might be worth parking it up for awhile, at least you know that car and have personalised it.........just a thought

JazzJPH · 05-31-2011, 04:06 PM

Nah, I'd probably stay with swift since they're dirt cheap anyway..

4.5 months left like, you do have a point... ARGH!!!

Well, does anybody know just incase I need a new car lol

How come they sooo cheap for you?? points perhaps??

JazzJPH · 05-31-2011, 06:51 PM

I got 3 points and now I have a "claim" even though it was the other party's fault.

that's annoying - "state claims regardless of fault" - Get bent you con artists!

Aye so it would technically shoot up, however, with 4 years no claims I might benefit from checking other insurance companies (plus I'll be 21 which apparently is good for insurance).

But swift is real cheap. The highest quote I have seen from them is £1080. You don't get anything except from insurance, but it's cheap enough.

They all want to know about claims, regardless of fault, not just Swift. Most don't penalise you though if it wasn't your fault, i.e. costs were recovered.

25 is the best milestone to hit for insurance.... I could't believe what a difference it made overnight

My insurance was up for renewal a month before my 25th, so renewed, turned 25, cancelled and took out a new policy with them... saves loads

Ok mate cheers for that. I'll work on turning 25
