Buying a new motor? Then cash in on one of these 10 Ramadan car deals

If you are considering buying a new car, now would be the perfect time to do so. During Ramadan, all the major car dealers launch special offers to lure in buyers during what would otherwise be a relatively slow retail period. From Volkswagen to Ford to Lotus to Porsche, there are a plethora of bargains to take advantage of. Last week, the Money section rounded up three of the best deals on offer. But to top that up, here are 10 of the best offers available until the end of the Holy Month. 1 Kia The deal: Buyers of a 2015 Kia Picanto, Cerato or Soul model, will receive free electronic gifts such as a 40" LED Samsung TV, a free servicing package and 12 months of free insurance.
