Hot car deals, 24 Sepetember 2009

We've scoured the internet to bring you the cheapest deals on cars. This week, we've saved over £3.5k off a VW California - (Discounts are rare on the VW California).

VW California for £33k

Volkswgen has just revamped its Transporter vans range with new engines and an appearance upgrade. Why should you care? Because this also affects the Caravelle people carrier and California camper van.

Result? You might just be able to get a rare deal on one of these - if you’re happy to settle for the older, less efficient 2.5-litre turbodiesel engine and pre-facelift looks. The California is the world’s only official carmaker-built camper van, but it's currently sitting in Auto eBid’s top deals section.

The reverse auction site, where dealers bid for your custom by offering their lowest possible price, reckons the most it will cost at the moment is £33,237 - and with any luck you’ll pay even less. List price for the current model is £36,806 - so that’s a £3,569 saving.

The revised California is set to cost even more - close to £40,000, we’ve been told  - so get a bargain while you can.
