Buying demos

[TinSnips]

Oh.. copy.. I don't change it EVERY 3000. But definitely at least twice in that first 3000. I change the oil every 7,500 - with every 15,000 being a proper service.

ignitionsv6 - it was a MY10 SV6 atomic green sedan.
i decided to go with a new international instead...think its more suited to me, even tho i love the idea of the sv6!

Atomic should sell you on the SV6 if nothing else!!!

There can't be too much wrong with a 3000 k commodore can there ? It would have to be at least 10% off, and get em to throw in that first service and oil change free. then i'd buy it.

It would only be the lack of a running in schedule that would make me think twice. And they do tend to be driven harder than your average. I know I pushed the test ute I took for a run pretty hard before making the purchase.

Having said that.. you can still get a lemon off the assembly line - apparently.

Or in your case a Lemon tree. I agree re running in plus it being a demo would of never reached proper temp before flogged. Why bother. Buy new. I got ute for 34k with tint,paint and leather protection,5 year ext warranty,5 year smart tech,mats,rust protection and tow bar.

Check for smash repairs on demos. Many demos become demos because they have been damaged due to accidents in transit and can't be sold as new cars.

wigbilly u must drive a good bargain! sounds like u got a great deal. i am now trying to work out window tinting (seeing as i didnt bargain that into my price - novice buyer!), if i get it after i purchase it, does it affect warranty at all?

 

[TinSnips]

won't affect your warranty in the slightest - as long as it's done by a licensed installer.

I got ute for 37.8k but as thru fleet they pay gst. So 34k drive away. I really wouldn't think aftermarket tinting affects warranty. All the tint companies offer lifetime warranty on tint anyway.
