Different dealers charge different ORC. Simple way of doing it is advertising price plus orc for easy comparison.
Cash is king? Bullshit. Finance is far better for the dealer, especially in second hand market.

If I had $ 20 000 I wouldn't worry about $ 500 but since I only have $ 3 000 it's a pain.
I did just that when I couldn't understand how the on road "COSTS" were $580 for a 400cc motorcycle.
I asked:
Hi,
$580? is that for 12 months? NZTA lists it as $471.78
and this is what I got back:
The $580 is made up of 6 months registration, WOF, fuel and also internal freight within NZ.
Lets look at that a bit. 6 Months rego is $271.09. 17 litres of fuel $34 (at the time) wof $35. Internal freight they can get stuffed, Noel Leeming don't charge me for getting the fridge to their shop FFS. so we have 340.09 that's 239.91 of extra profit on the "on road costs"
Not good enough. it is about time that all road vehicles were listed at their drive away price, no exceptions.
If you can read ... you would have noticed the ... + on road costs just after the stated retail price.
Even if you buy an import car now days ... on road costs usually need to be paid by the buyer.
The lower "Full Cost" price looks better without the extra costs being added. these extras are commonly referred to as being in "The small print" ....
All said and done ... nothing new or unusual. Get over it ... and either buy it ... or not. You are free to choose ...
When life throws you a curve ... Lean into it ...
Ok, would you be happy with $4,495 as a ride away price with 4 services included, 6 months rego, and 3 year WoF?
OR $3,000 + $500 + ($250x4) = $4,500
Be careful what you wish for. I prefer costs are clearly broken down and my options explained to me. Lets me decide what I want to do. I don't like all inclusive pricing.
Actually FTA does not talk about regular servicing being responsibility of the seller. Heatpump needs servicing regularly, who pays for that? The buyer. FTA covers manufacturing defects, not routine servicing.
Using the incorrect specification fluids can also cause damage too. Simply implying that running out of oil is buyers responsibility but any other engine damage from using wrong oil type is somehow sellers responsibility is irrational. You have obviously never run or worked at a commercial business.
