I found this hidden gem while browsing Nissan's website.
All you have to do is to visit a specific Nissan dealership's website and wait for the popup (wait 2 -3 seconds) as per the screenshot.
Steps:
1. Register your details, you should obtain a unique code after you've completed the registration process.
2. A salesman will get in touch from your elected dealership to organise a test drive of the Navara (Make sure it is for a Navara only).
3. Go for the Test drive and complete it and obviously don't forget to provide your unique code.
4. Dealer should allocate your $100 voucher for free within 1 - 2 days.
So far i've noticed that these dealerships are offering this:
- Ferntree Gully - https://www.ftgnissan.com.au/
- Ringwood Nissan - https://www.ringwoodnissan.com.au/
- Blackburn Nissan - https://www.blackburnnissan.com.au/
- Werribee Nissan - https://www.werribeenissan.com.au/

Feel free to add to the list as i'd recommend sharing the load across Victoria for test drives.
I couldn't find any in NSW or WA.

I got mine the same day.

    After the test drive, did you get called up by the sales person every day asking you whether you were interested in buying the Navara? ;)

      I simply told them that i haven't made my mind yet and will reach out to them myself. No calls so far

    Go for the Test drive and complete it and obviously don't forget to provide your unique code.

    Just be upfront and say that you're just there for the $100. They'll give it to you without a test drive. Don't waste their time if you're not interested.

        In a different state, but I'm in the industry. I've been part of brands that have done this before, and the manager said exactly that, if they're just here for the free shit just give it to them and don't waste your time.

          Gyms are the opposite. If you tell them you're only there for the free trial they'll try and get you out of there pronto.

            @peterpeterpumpkin: Agreed, I remember once I registered for a free trial for a fairly newish gym, I was probably 20% yes to signing up and 80% no due to the location but I figured I’d use the trial and see how I go. After I registered for the free trial, I got the appointment to go in and the lady completely tried to sign me up ( before I even had used the gym). I advised her that I wanted to trial before I went into any contract. She absolutely cracked it, advised me I can’t do the free trial because it’s “expired” (even though it was still on their website, and she’d let me use the gym for that one day only.

            I got a little annoyed but did my workout and left. Funny enough I checked a month later and the offer was still there (on their website). I did think about calling head office to let them know the circumstances I was given (which to be honest was rude) but decided there was no point because even if they gave me the free trial I wouldn’t take it (due to the lady giving her rant at me).

              @eltito: that's absurd, the whole point of the trial is to see if you'd like the place
              I'd completely understand her reaction if you said you'd bugger off after the trial's over but that's not what you said

              • eltito on 04/01/2020 - 13:22

                @bakemon0: Yeh I know, I was actually really close to calling head office just so I could get my free trial and roll back into the gym and let her know I was here to use the trial for the entire week or two (can’t remember how long it was). But I Decided against it, as I couldn’t be bothered with the gym anymore due to her attitude.

                  @eltito: Hate these types of "company heroes". It's as if they are a major shareholder in the business or something. Even if they are that's no way to treat a customer! What's the point of having the promo?

                  You should complain and see if they come back and offer you a discount :)

                  • eltito on 04/01/2020 - 13:49

                    @abc: Yeah, this happened about 8-9 years ago, I’m not even sure if the gym chain still exists, but I agree, she was definitely a company hero, either that, or was having a bad day.

                    I don’t know if a discount would have enticed me enough to sign up - as she did let me try out the gym for that day only and it wasn’t anything special, BUT, I was tempted to complain just to get my free trial so I could stick it to her.

                    To me, the worst part was her lying about the trial saying it had expired and it shouldn’t be on the website and they don’t allow it anymore etc - it was still on there website a month after all this happened. That’s what really annoyed me.

          • crazyboy on 04/01/2020 - 14:23

            @peterpeterpumpkin: I tried 7 different gyms in my area. Some free trials and some Groupon 1 month deals. I finally liked the 7th one and went on with it. It was brand new with all equipments and even cheaper than other gyms in my area.

          • Levathian on 04/01/2020 - 19:41

    So, the free $100 reward card is provided by the dealership on the day, and not directly by Nissan?

    If the dealership gets massive number of customers coming in for the test drive, they will simply assume they are all there for the $100 EFTPOS card. What's in it for them then? Why would they waste time arranging test drives when the customers are simply incentivized by the free $100 reward card?

    • spackbace on 04/01/2020 - 11:44

      Dealer should allocate your $100 voucher for free within 1 - 2 days.

      Nope, card is 'sent in the mail' ;)

      Why would they waste time arranging test drives when the customers are simply incentivized by the free $100 reward card?

      Suzuki did one a couple years back and were smart about it saying they'd give you $100 if you test drove whatever car it was they had and then against others in the same category purchased a different car from elsewhere, obviously you need to prove it but it would eliminate so many people wasting peoples time.

        Compared to a Mahindra they are close to perfect. But it is a tough game, Ford sells theirs sometimes below cost, The Colorado is probably the only thing left selling for Holden. Volkswagen and even Mercedes jumped into the ute market. In the US Ram by Chrysler Fiat is selling like hot cakes so trying to resell a used Nissan is not going to be profitable investment.

    They look at what car you drove in with and quiz your reasoning. They expect you to do research of the Nevara range beforehand.
    I think because it shows you booked with the incentive they get suspicious.
    You'd have to be either very good at lying, or genuinely interested in purchasing the vehicle.

            I hadn’t read that Interpol issued an arrest warrant, but I hope he slips up and ends up in a country where he is arrested and extradited.
