Any interest in a discount agreement with Audi Flensborg (Germany)?

[Jonas_R]

Hi guys,

Normally when I get parts i buy them of Audi Zentrum Flensborg in Germany.

I get a 10% discount when I buy there and they have no problem shipping to Denmark.

You can pay via VISA/Mastercard (they need a copy of your card the first time), or you can get an account or you can pay in advance via IBAN and BIC.

If this could interest the forum I would try to get the same 7-10% discount on parts as I get?

Also I have emailed the person that I deal with an asked him if it is alright that I post his contact information on this forum.

This is just to help out if you need parts directly from Germany.

Yeah, why not!
And why stop with 10% when there is a whole s2-community that's interested.
Perhaps we could get perhaps 15% when naming s2forum, depending on negotiation skills of course

But _if_ VAGparts try to survive by selling in only Euro this proposal (though good) will be voted down, to show loyalty towards VAGparts.
But that's a big IF..
Don't get me wrong now, I'm all for saving VAGparts.

You can get up to 30% discount from main dealer on a trade account

That all depends on the following..................

1, The discount code of the parts(s) in question
2, How much you're prepared to spend each month with the main dealer
3, How generous the main dealer is ;o)

But to get 30% from a main dealer, you really need to be spending 10k + a month easily

Up to 30%? Try being a little friendlier to your parts man.
The most I have had at my local 'stealer' is 75%. That's without a trade account BTW.
As APG says. it depends on the discount code, there's not a lot of discount to be had on some parts.

Hi, I think there would be a lot of interest/demand for this rather than main dealers here.

Yes but the parts are bought from Germany by Audi UK (or VW or whatever) and then sold to the dealers and then sold to you. That's 3 lots of markup!!

So your 30% discount isn't worth all you think it is...

[philip walker]

UK Audi dealers are not supposed to sell to the trade.
Trade accounts are now managed by to VW owned Trade part specialists TPS. You can obtain special prices but you have to be spending a lot every month as suggested.

As also suggested above the part discount code affects the discount available. Brakes, pads and service items you can expect a fair discount. Trim items, panels etc are not so good.
