Fancy a cheap V8?

[Orange Cola]

Specifically a Ford Mustang. When the change over to the facelift was happening back in September last year Ford built a couple of hundred pre-facelift cars to bridge the gap in production and those cars have been slow moving out of the dealers because people have been holding off for decent deals. Most Mustangs are customer factory orders so the facelift cars have been arriving for a few months now and the next model year of Mustang is coming on line so Ford are really keen to shift the last of the pre-facelift cars.

Ford website has an example offer under the Mustang tab for a V8 manual however there are good deals to be had out of individual dealers if you wanted to shop around a bit (not many dealers can sell the Mustang anyway)

In summary 0%, £6,684 deposit and £399/month starting but there's now starting to be better out there.

Damn, that’s a deal I’d be interested in if I was at the end of the Golf lease.

The end of the lease is quite a way off isn't it? They'll probably have stock until the end of the summer at this rate. I'm just hoping they keep it on for the facelift cars.

Well over a year away

basically c.£580 a month to borrow a mustang for 3 years. Ford must love these deals, they make paying full list price for a car look so appealing!

I thought this post was going to be about an old Lexus v8 for £300 or something

There's better available if you go into a dealer, depending on the spec and whether it's in stock ready to go or sat in a port somewhere some folk have been getting between £3k and £6k off list. The V8 convertible with auto box and custom pack is £45.5k list, target price in a dealer is circa £39.5k. I'd expect to get £3k off a bottom spec Ecoboost and bottom spec V8, more off list as the options go up.

Tie that in with the 0% and it's quite a difference to the figures on the Ford link I posted.

And sorry it's not sub £5k V8 motoring (although I can't wait until the Mustangs drop to sub £15k for a reasonable one as that's my ticket to a track car )

That's rubbish. There's half a chance the facelift ones will have some half decent offers on by then but it has taken nearly three years to offer any kind of discount on the Mustang.

It's a 0% PCP not a lease so your effectively financing the depreciation interest free, I can see the appeal particularly coupled with a discount which you haven't previously had .

If you pay the deposit, all the monthly payments and the final payment, you’re paying less than list because a) they’re selling at a discount and b) it’s interest free. Even if I had the cash, I’d buy it using this option because I’d be earning interest on my savings. I know you’re pathologically wired to sneer at new cars and finance, but sometimes you’re wrong.

i had a PCP on my CTR, I’m well aware how it works.

Also, if you like your savings in your savings account to use, a £6600 deposit is pretty silly.

You say that, and yet you still came out with what you said

But not as silly as taking £40k out. It’s be better to get an interest free loan over 5 years or something, but they don’t exist.

the only thing of note about that deal is that it’s 0%.

its not really a particularly cheap V8 any way you look at it is it...

0% and less than list price. But if that means you still feel paying list price is more attractive, you crack on mate.

Is there a cheaper one you can buy new in the UK?

only less than list because it’s old stock.
