New 2022 UX Premium Sport cancelled order

[KingHal]

Not unlike fourbanks in an earlier post, I’ve just bought a brand new UX Premium Sport.

I’ve had a CT200h F-Sport for a couple of years and decided to upgrade to a UX. I’d pretty well decided with the salesman at Lexus Belfast that I’d place an order for the 2023 MY in September. 

I noticed a couple of used one year old UX F-Sports on their website and decided I’d go for one of these rather that wait until Summer 2023 for delivery (and who knows what the price will be on delivery?)

So on 2 September I wandered into the dealer, asked for my usual salesman, sat in reception and eventually asked him about the two used UX’s. He replied, “I have sitting outside a brand new Premium Sports. It’s a cancelled order. While you were waiting I did some sums and can offer you that brand new UX for less than either of the used ones. I know what I’d do.”

I went through all the numbers with him and 15 minutes later we shook hands on it. 

After we’d strictly speaking done the deal I mentioned that I’d like a dashcam fitted along with a boot liner. I offered to pay but he said, “I can find space for that.”

A great deal, and I pick it up on Thursday. I can’t wait.
