Whats the catch??

I am ordering a brand new fabia vrs soon, completly standard, black magic.

Recently i have been searching for the best price, drivethedeal.com, the best price 11166.21... but www.micronetshowroom.com 10326, brand new black magic?

Has n e one had n e dealings with them, if so is there any catch beacuse this price is extreamly cheap, even the extras are dirt cheap

cheers for your help guys

Umm, do a search on "Micronet" on Briskoda, i'm sure there's a thread or 2 mentioning them.

And no third year of warranty cover or 3 years AA cover - both provided by Skoda UK with cars sold through their dealer network?

In that case drivethedeal.com would in my opinion be the better deal .

£360 extra for the 3rd year warranty and for 3 years AA cover would IMHO be a good investment .

"A UK supplied vehicle comes with a minimum 3 year UK/European dealer warranty - The same as you get from your
local Showroom."

Thats a quote from the site?

drivethedeal appears to be the best choice because they put you in contact with the dealer, and all the benefits of buying from a dealer. drivethedeal also state that their cars are all UK sourced, so a 3-year warranty should be included to protect your investment.

Where do micronetshowroom source their vehicles from, and how long will it take to get one?

Also try tins.co.uk as they are part of Pendragon, which is a massive listed car dealership, you should be able to trust them, they supply Skodas.

Of particular interest is the fact that the 2 men who run the company are disqualified from being Company Directors. They get around this by setting up as a partnership, and not a Ltd Co...
