I like ESB, a nice friendly local dealer. Always found their new bike deals expensive, but for servicing and the like they are very reasonable. The spares manager rides an SV as well!

Rex Judd in Edgware and Hampstead are also doing the same deal

I expect you all know this but just in case there is anyone who doesn't, 0% finance doesn't necessarily produce the biggest bargains.
The Bank or Finance company lending the money will still require its interest (say 6 or 7 percent, ie what it costs them to borrow the funds themselves and cover administration costs etc) and the dealer simply adds it on to the price he expects for any particular bike, or makes it up elsewhere on profit or commissions on insurance/accessories/"warranty" policies etc etc. That interest HAS to be paid somewhere, and you'll be really pressed to get a big discount AND 0%.....unless your dealer has propagated the fabled money tree.......
Before you buy, check out the cost of your own personal loan and how much the dealer REALLY wants for the 'bike.

So, does that mean, John_pal, that you are a salesman at ESB and your original post was a crafty bit of what I think is called "guerilla marketing"? :wink:

ha ha ha.
there hasnt been a great deal of intrest in them though. its wierd because they are so beautiful, plus we got one for demo.
After reading this thread I consider it a trade sales call and it's therefore disallowed and has now been locked.
All trade sales must be approved and sanctioned by John Tapley or myself otherwise we would have a flood of spam on our hands, which would be to no-one's benefit.
