Buying a Car from a Showroom

[BigStack]

Hi,

I am looking to purchase a used car from a showroom (as opposed to a private sale) in the Helsinki region. I understand the car industry is struggling like many of the industries in Finland currently - which puts buyers in a strong negotiation position!

I would like to know what kind of discounts are considered standard e.g. 10% off list price -> so a car advertised for 15k should be available for 13,5k? Are there any other incentives salespeople are likely to agree to e.g. cheap finance or insurance deals?

I look forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences!

Br,

Question for you: do you trade old car in? If you do, you will find out that they put the discount in the car. If you do not trade in, 6 to 10 percent might be normal. They always have those actions but it is just discounted in your trade in. It might be worth it to get out of the big cities if you search a good discount.

They get money from financing too, so the sticker price might drop if you _don't_ have cash in hand.
