Hi Guys!

I'm new here so I hope I post this on the right forum.

I'm looking at getting a Yaris soon. Since I've never bought a new car before and don't know anyone who has bought a toyota before was just wondering if anyone can recommend a dealer to go to in melbourne.

Also, I get what "goverment charges" mean, but how about dealer delivery? From my research on the net they can be up to $1600!! Can't I just pick up the car so I don't have to pay that much?

Sorry for he newbish question...

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hey there~ First off, welcome and enjoy your stay :D

Glen Waverley (Lane Toyota) are who i recommend to go and see. They're a bunch of nice guys and they know their stuff (unlike many other dealers). Although, not all dealers have the Yaris in yet, so it's probably best to ring around to see which ones have it in their showrooms.

Dealer delivery fee is something you must pay. Standard delivery fee for my corolla was $999 (at Lane Toyota). It's the charge you pay for the Dealer getting the car brought over to Australia, not the fee that you pay for them to deliver it to your door. It sucks i know, but what can we do? :angry:

Hey thanks for the reply!

I'll be sure to check them out.

Going to the dealers this weekend, I hope I got lucky :)

i bought one

they unable to budge on the RRP price and will not remove the ORC for you .. its such a new car so they wont budge...

if ur on budget u might as well get an ascent corolla for $1k more

We got our Yaris for good price coz I had a friend at Toyota HQ and they threw in lots of extras and gave us a trade in price which is at the top range of the private sale price.

I can recommend Frankston Toyota as a dealer to visit. Stay clear from Cannon,Brighton and Nunawading Toyota over priced and very pushy.

Anywhere except LANE toyota in Glen waverley, they're pushy and the price ain't good.

Had a heap of probs with Nunawading,when buying a rolla in 03. Pushy and rude. Lane Toyota would not quote over phone. Got a fantastic from Frankston then.Never looked back.

Regards,

Lauschie

thanks lauschie, Frankston is a bit too far for me but I'll give it a go if I can..

gday the gazer,

I live in oakleigh and travel to frankston for every service which is abt 32kms away. When I bought my rolla in 03 i paid 22400. They threw in tinted window,floor mats,free tank of petrol,free loan car when my car was getting serviced,10% off servicing costs and parts,including extras,extended warranty from 3 to 5 years. Usually quote for parts is higher then what you pay. E.g. Bought sportivo wheels quoted 655.00 paid 565.00.

All the best,

Lauschie

you need to go and bargain in person and then fight the dealers off each other .. get 3-4 dealer prices and jsut get each one trying to beat each other ...

if you cant get price then u get accessories

my Gf's YR yaris was 16490 but auto ... manual is 14490 i think

ORC is $2k

      Can I put a 2010 bumper on my 2008 Camry ?

      I have a 2008 Camry altise and recently damaged the front bumper and i'm wondering if I can fit a 2010 sportivo bumper on to replace it. It looks like it fits I know I will need to get new headlights for it to fit but do I need to do any modifications or will all the plastic clips and screws line up ?

      these seat covers look pretty good, but I've had bad experience when trying to fit some cheaper ones I bought online - they say custom fit, anyone else tried them ? Would love to know before I buy them, thanks all https://mycustomcar.com.au/

      am2 fuse blowing

      Hello, i have a 1996 starlet The problem is when i turn the key the fuse blows, and i have been looking over the wiring and can’t find any shorts or damaged wire. The car would not crank over because of the fise blowing. I found out that if i disconnect the transponder key ecu the fuse is holding, but as soon as i connect the transponder the fuse blows. So i wonder if there is something I can try out? should i just buy a new transponder box or is it something else i could try? and is it not kinda wierd that the box is the problem? I have looked inside the box and cant see any corrosion in the box

      Toyota Celica '96 5S-FE no spark

      Hi everyone, I have spent too much time on my Celica and even my mechanic is stumped at figuring out the issue so any tips will be appreciated. Here is what has been done, immobiliser disbabled, distributor replaced, igniter replaced, EFI relay replaced, and EFI 15AMP fuse is not blown. I tried jumping E1 and TE1 in the diagnostic port to try and get a code from the CEL but it doesn't light up, I think it might be burned out so I will have to get on that. I am now clueless about what to do next, it could be the ECU but I can't find any pointers too that.
