It seems to be a buyers market so, yes, why would you not attempt to negotiate the best deal you can.
When we found exactly the van we wanted at the price we expected to pay we didn't tell the salesman that . . . and to conclude the deal he fitted a brand-new PowrTouch mover, serviced the van, and included Aquaroll, Wastemaster, EHU cable, gas bottles, new battery and a few other things besides.
We don't ever expect to return to this particular dealer (he's not local and there is an NCC-approved workshop much nearer to home for servicing) so I had little compunction about haggling. BUT, if the dealer has a good reputation, is near to you and you think you want a long-term relationship with him in respect of servicing and after-sales support then "scr*wing him down" for the last few quid out of the deal might not be the bargain it seems.
