Triumph World Chesterfield Offer



I know they aren’t the most popular bike on Pistonheads

That is a good deal if anyone wants one.

Youles have them in stock for just under £100/month with 3k down.

Don’t think the recent reviews of problems are doing them any favours.

That's crazy, these things are obviously just not shifting and the ones that do seem to be full of issues. Think Triumph may just quietly drop the RR before much longer. It's a great looking bike in the flesh but just no buyers out there for such a niche product imo.

Just to finish off, having done the maths i can't believe anyone will be stumping up the £11k purchase in 36 months time that means you'll be hiring this for a grand total of £5640 for 3 years use...seems enough to me!

I think p/x on these after the three years would be about £8k so paying the suggested £11k would be throwing money away.

It's the issues which are driving this, and the lack of sales because of it.

Lot of bike for the money, just depends how much of a risk taker you are.

How long is the warranty on the bike? I'd not want a 3 Yr PCP with a 2 year warranty.

It's 2 year warranty. I think you have to take out the extended warranty before they're a year old. A year old Street Twin that caught my eye being sold by a Triumph dealer. The dealer said you had to take out the extended warranty before some date this week when it was a year old but if you missed it you'd have one year Triumph approved warranty. I think it was £400 for another two years Triumph extended warranty giving 4 years in total.

Perhaps I am a miser but I think £5 plus to use a bike for three years, I could buy a bike outright for that. That was my thinking when I got caught up in the Africa Twin PCP feeding frenzy here in late 2017.

It's just that you couldn't run this bike over 3 yrs for less if others are correct about the resale being £8k after 3 yrs. It would cost you £1k more and that's assuming you either have cash or 0% finance etc

That’s more because of dreadful depreciation than a good deal.

That deal looks good on the face of it, but £3k deposit so total payable £5988...can think of better ways to hose away six grand, some of those involve motorbikes too.

Interesting that it’s a “finance only price”. I assume that means they won’t just sell you the bike for the advertised price - your only option is to buy the finance deal.

They probably just strip away their entire margin on the actual bike and make their profit from the finance commission.

I was in Woods Abergele a few weeks ago and they had 9 of these lined up in the showroom, don't think they can give them away.
