Min 3k trade in deal?
 

I have an au falcon that has a front main leak and the tranny is on the way out (needs a 2k rebuild). Long story short its time to cut my losses with the car and move on. This is mostly a question for the guys that work at dealerships but what are the conditions needed to get this min 3k trade in? Would a falcon with a an oil leak and dodgy tranny be acceptable?

Min 3k trade in deal?
 

I've heard that aslong as it's registered and drivable you're good

Though that's just speculation, I was gonna do the same with my mums 95 Camry, sitting pretty on 380,000kms and falling apart

You looking at John Hughes?

Some say you have to prove you've had it for >6 months too. Stops getting $50 bunkys and trading them in. Let us know how ya go!

Dealer will make money off you anyway

3k trade in then a 4k mark up

Ask them to forward the terms and conditions.

Holden say as long as uve owned for six months is registered and drives they will take it.

Exactly.

I once had a dealer in my youth refuse to accept even the $2k minimum trade in due to state of car - it WAS a BOMB.

Yeh i get that they mark the price up before i trade my car in. But its so convenient that i can just dust my hands of a car that is going to be pretty difficult to move on.
