United-Kingdom Dealers Deals

Anyone know if they can get the dealers to budge on prices or things they might throw in?

I'm looking in to buy a new MCS 19k and as I remember when I bought my last mini a year and half a go I got a couple of things thrown in like I didn't pay extra to have alloy patina interior (perhaps that wasn't anything extra?) and I got the spoiler swapped for the fin one for no extra cost.

Anyone else have any stories of things they got off etc?? and why the dealers are so defiant not to budge?

Thanks

I used to have a Zetec-S a few years back, not a bad motor, traded it for a saxo vts (loved that car) But you really got offered 2500 quid for your ZS!!??? I thought 1900 quid for my cheap runabout Mplate Golf gti 16v was tight.

Oh and freebies....fifteen quid of petrol and 10% off some cloth mats whoopie do.
