its funny someone mentioned about a 1500 price drop on tyres, my friend was selling his comodore to a dealer for trade in, lowest price on carsales was 6k, dealer offered him 2500k and he got finance through the dealer, then he said ok ill pick up my 22k car at the end of the week and in that time reversed into something and broke the plastic on a rear tail light and a SMALL scratch next to that. the trade in was then reduced to 1500k. not only is the car now worth 10k but the dealer thought the need to not only make thousands on interest and the resale of his car but just to f**k him some more they made a 50 dollar second hand tail light and a 10 dollar touch up pen turn into a grand.
i bought my 88 camry 4 years ago for 3700 FROM A DEALER and sold it this year for 2500.
i HATE dealers and never go into car yards, just from personal experiences.
btw cracker of a thread, very entertaining.
