Crazy Price Norton Commando PCP Deal

2

Registration numbers, back end bonus, finance commission from Norton, the prospect of service work, supply of low mileage bikes handed back in two years time.

It's a Money-Go-Round.

Plain and simple.

(For a scandalous example of such things, this one created by Severn Trent Water, see:

BBC News - Major water company uses accounting trick to inflate balance sheet by £1.68bn - BBC News
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cd75nqwdpj7o )

Like lots of parishioners complain (and rightly so)... "We used to make things in this country and companies created employment".

I’d be amazed if that’s the case.

It must lose that much as soon as you ride away on it.

Don’t see what they get from it?

Orders in order books on which to borrow from, as a company...or to prove that they're actually worth investing in ?
 
On AKA website i can only see 0% HP finance and no PCP deals apart from the small print on the poster.
Where is the info on there website for the PCP deals ?
 
It's one way of getting their bikes on the road and seen by potential customers. They could possibly put it down as some sort of tax loss. Tempting even if you pay for extra mileage.
 
Has anyone actually asked the dealer about this.??
Yes. At length. They updated breakdown to state annual mileage allowed as they had missed that off. Two physical bikes in showroom. Twenty something bikes built and ready at Norton.

Offer is December orders rather than delivery as likely to sell more units that can be fulfilled.

Pillion seat is an option at £TBC

Unsure as to whether any of the excessive vibrations that the YT vloggers have commented on have been dampened, but he will ask Norton on Monday.

Outright cash deal sub £14K

You say hand it back and walk away at end of PCP ?

There'll be a penalty as the end value is often less than what's owed.

Who cares, buyer returns the bike. I used to smoke that a month what they are asking for monthly payment.
Looking at some approved Ducati bikes, some have done less than 1000 miles in 2 years, less than 1500 miles in 3 years. So what we have learned from this? The square of fuck all.
Some people don't want to own shit but like the idea of having the latest shit in the garage and willing to pay for it a small monthly fee to have it. Also don't have to worry of selling it when they get bored with that model. A bit like divorce but cheaper...
Not my idea of commerce and ownership.
I see on the FB people decided to get a 1250RS and after few months want to sell...and they can't. Or they do and take a massive hit.
 
Spoken to a couple of dealers to confirm the above deal and it seems a nationwide offer at "participating" retailers which I suspect is most Norton dealers. £69 down and £69 pcm for two years, hand it back, cheap motoring on a new bike, if PCP is your preference.
Phone call from Norton fanboy mate tonight, he has done the deal local to him, so proof is in the pudding so to speak.

Well the looks and finish are very good indeed. Master cylinders could have been better thought out.

The sound alone is worth the monthly payment 😂

Did`nt Honda do a similar deal with the AT about 5 years ago?
yep, mate got one for £99 a month over three years which was a steal. at final payment stage the value of the bike was high so it was 100% worthwhile.

7+ years ago now....a £12k AT for £9k on pcp with a £0 deposit and £70 pcm for 3 yrs at 0%...but it was John Banks Honda who did it....a few other dealers matched it for the odd customer but mostly; UK dealers were furious with JBH for de-valuing their stock by 25% overnight. I still have mine...bought at Chester Honda.

I'm glad someone has plumped for one of these Nortons...if I was still in the UK I'd have done the same.
