Ducati hikes prices 10% – but breaks out 0% deals

Ducati has raised the price of all its bikes effective immediately, meaning you can no longer buy a liquid-cooled Duke for under five figures. The 848 is now £10,495, the 1198 starts at £12,995 and the Monster 1100 £8,350. But they’ve countered the rises with 0% finance deals across the range meaning you can now pick up an 1198 from £182.17 a month, a new Monster 1100 for £117.65 or a Monster 696 for just £87.72.

All Ducati models except for the Streetfighter range, 1098R, 1098R Troy Bayliss and Desmosedici RR qualify for the finance offer – available until 30 April 2009.

Buyers can choose between 2 schemes: 24 monthly payments with a 30% deposit and 36 monthly payments with a 50% deposit. For examples of the finance package contact your local Ducati dealership (www.ducatiuk.com) or call 0870 1222 996.
