Skoda changed to a direct sales model last year.
This took away any control dealers have over discounts on cars or options as they lost their flexibility as Skoda controls pricing.
Under the old system a dealer would buy stock from Skoda then sell it to you for whatever they liked to make a profit.
Now the dealers are basically sales agents for Skoda.
So unless Skoda offers a deal then I think the days of dealer discounts may be gone.
