The Opel Mokka (X) Thread

Virtually the same price? A high spec 2015 Enjoy for 290k vs a mid range Mokka X Cosmo for R70k more goes beyond virtually... and my budget.

They also had a 2016/7 Captiva LT which was virtually the same price which is also tempting.

I'm sure you can find a Cosmo between 320k-350k range

I was thinking more along the lines of Enjoy vs Enjoy.

The included service plan would make up the cost basically.

290k for an “old” model with 25000km on is madness.

You can have the 2017 Enjoy with 10,000km on for 280k.

Or one with 1000km on for the same price you are shopping.

So your price on an old car is absolute madness.

What do you mean by “high spec” anyway?

Ok - when you said new I thought you meant new, not newer used.

An extension to the service plan would cost me R8k for two years.

For one thing leather seats. As much as I personally prefer fabric I also have kids. Automatic transmission is also high on my wish list.

That 2017 Opel Mokka 1.4T Enjoy Auto for R 279 995 is well below any of the other deals I've seen for that model.

I was trying to figure out if you were referring to new with your 290k.

Because that price for a two year old car with 25,000km on is outrageous compared to what I’ve seen.

I would wait a few months and buy a 2017 Cosmo demo for the same money.

Use the Cars.co.za mailer system to add what you want and they email you when it pops up. Also if you know exactly what you want it means you can buy from Jo’burg etc which is often cheaper.

Gauteng is almost always cheaper.

It costs nothing to get a car down here or drive it down yourself.

Strange. Traveling has always cost me something. Local is lekker

What I mean is if the car is 30k cheaper the couple of grand to fly up and drive it down or pay the dealership is nothing.

Many of the bigger dealers will do it for free.

Either way I trust you’ve now seen that the original 290k car you looked at was insanely priced.
 
Had a look at the Mokka X on Saturday - seems nice enough. Certainly has all the bells and whistles.
