Festive Season Car Offers: What to Expect and How to Negotiate

Festive months bring the year's biggest discounts — and the most fine print.

Types of offers

• Cash discount — straightforward; get it written on the booking form.

• Exchange bonus — only valuable if your old car's valuation is fair.

• Corporate offer — needs proof of employment with listed companies.

• Low-rate finance — compare total interest, not just the headline rate.

Negotiation tips

Get the on-road quote in writing, compare at least two dealers, and value your old car independently before discussing exchange. See current deals on our offers page.
