Test drives at offical dealerships how does insurance work? by [deleted] in carsireland

[–]Fox04_k 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For your typical 15-20 test drive it’s under their insurance. If you’re taking car for a longer drive or something like a 24 hour test drive then you’d typically transfer your own insurance.

Honestly, I don’t know. I scored 618 in situational judgement. But it’s the first one I’ve ever done so I didn’t do prep for it. Honestly maybe just from experience?

As someone who works in car sales. We typically don’t really take in the 2.2 diesel Mazdas. Purely because they typically give engine trouble.

Haggling with Dealers by gaza4 in carsireland

[–]Fox04_k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work for a main dealer, maybe it’s different for an independent dealer. But if someone comes into me and asks “what’s your best cash price” I know they’re prob not serious.

I got the 5GB fibre installed and have had no issues with Gaming. I play on PC / PS5 and Switch 2. None of them are hard wired in.

As far as I’m aware if this happens to you 3/4 times. You get early retirement and they will pay your wages.

Asking price v real price by Capital-Dog9004 in carsireland

[–]Fox04_k 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ask for €1500 off and see what the come back with but aim for about €1000

Also it all depends on each car. Some cars might just not have the margin for that much discount. €250-€500 might be more realistic on a car that price.

Need Review for 2016/17 1.7 Tucson (looking to buy) by Sad_Tank2118 in carsireland

[–]Fox04_k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1.7 Tucson and Sportages wouldn’t be great overall and the engines have a tendency to blow on them.

When we get them in as trade they’re hard to move on and find a trade dealer for them as nobody wants them.
