Please can anyone advise. Myself and DH were looking at a car earlier in the week and said we wanted to buy it, The salesman was keen for us to take a finance package even though we said we would prefer to pay upfront (not intended to be a stealth boast, we are using some inheritance money - our old car 17 years old)
It was advertised online and we called the day before to establish if it was available. They said it was, but when he presented us with the figures it was around 20% more than advertised. We said the advertised price was basically our top budget and we werent interested in buying at the price he gave us. He then said he would honour the price but not on the car we saw, we would have to order another one. He also said we could take out a PCP finance package, pay the first monthly instalment and take advantage of some offer they had, and then pay off after month one. We asked if there would be an early repayment charge and he was very vague and said he thought it would be about £50. Does anyone know if this is the case?
We are having second thoughts as he has given us no written info or Ts and Cs, just a receipt for a £500 deposit. I have emailed and asked for all the details and terms and conditions of the finance packages, and am waiting for a reply.
