Luxury cars at bargain prices

Many premium car dealers are slashing their prices in a bid to clear their stock according to the Financial Times.

In a bid to reserve the future value of their vehicles and maintain their image of exclusivity, car manufacturers are reluctant to advertise big discounts available through their franchise dealerships.
Luxury names such as Porsche, Bentley and Rolls Royce have seen a rise in cancelled orders as economic downturn hits the UK.

The newspaper reports that according their source a specialist dealership in South Derbyshire, a Porsche 997 Turbo Cabriolet that sold last year for £130,000 can now be had for £90,000. Even better, a Bentley Brooklands coupe that sold for £247,000 when launched this year can be bought for £147,000. A cool £100,000 saving.

Equally, the newspaper rumours that £13,000 is being knocked of the price of a new Range Rover.
