If you don't like reading words like Renault and such please read Renault as Fiat, Dci as Jtd, 120 as 115 and Scenic as Mulipla lol
OK my parents went out today and decided that they wanted a new car
They went to Renault and got a price for the 1.9DCi 120bhp 6 speed Scenic Dynamique at 13,500, a good(ish) price for a 6 month old demonstator with 7k on the clock. In the colour they loved and the spec they wanted. They give a 3 year warranty (or so I am told).
They phoned me to find out what I thought. Motorpoint offer a brand new Scenic with 0 miles, unregistered for 12599 + tax + registration fee (£38) - pretty damn good! These come from Cyprus but are European spec and this is the Dynamique spec as above.
However, when my dad quoted this at Renault they said "You don't get a warranty from MP" So we phoned up to ask "You get a two year warranty with your main dealer". This has us confused.
My dad is all ready to go and buy the Scenic from Renault tomorrow but I have been telling him to slow down. I mean potentially MP will offer the same car, 6 months newer, 7k less on the clock all for £700 or so less than Renault when you add registration and tax.
This will be the first brand new car our family will have ever bought so it's something we aren't familiar with much but I know plenty on here are. I am currently trying to find info about the warrenties on the internet. Any links of info I can show to my parents will be great, I won't be able to say "But Stu said...." lol
Cheers
