• Citroen DS3 - Head Gasket 31 Jan 2023 (Forum)
  The finance company have agreed to contact the dealership for me as he didn’t send any service history etc with the car - which they think he was contracted to do. Any advice on what to do will be gratefully received.
• Citroen C3 - Car value - Worth selling? 4 Apr 2022 (Forum)
  Bit of a long one here goes… I was in an accident about a month ago which was my fault and had to pay an excess of 1.4k. It’s a 2016 Citroen C3 and I purchased it for 7k off finance nearly new. I wanted to sell my car after paying off finance and get something nicer but now I’m on the fence about selling as I feel I’ve put too much money into the car and it would not be worth selling at this point.

• Jeep Cherokee - Rejection of the car on Hire Purchase 4 Dec 2015 (Forum)
  Since we bought it it's been faulty. Been to the garage 3 times and they cannot fix the car. In August we made the complaint to finance company. After they had 8 weeks they asked 3 times for more time, so now its been 13 weeks with them and I haven't got their final response. Got Financial Ombudsman on the case now, and finance company asked for more time again.

• Hyundai Santa Fe - UKCarbroker 7 Mar 2011 (Forum)
  having read reports on this web site about the Santa fe I decided to look @ UKcarbroker site recommended on here, so back on September 6th 2010 I ordered one & I was told 3Months wait OK, but early Dec was told it would be now early Jan 2011, in the mean time I sold my Xtrail in prep for new car, only to be rang on the 4th Jan to say my order was cancelled as I was going to pay for it with no finance,(they were told @ time of order) all of a sudden it appears they cannot do this so was told I would have to take out some finance & start my order again another 3 mths, deposit repayed to my account ok, but what a let down after 4mths wait, I certainly would NOT recommend this Site to purcase a new car
• buying Passat 23 Feb 2006 (Forum)
  I have an 83k mile TDI 130 Passat estate and am considering replacing it with a new or newer model.With regard to a brand new model I am looking at putting down a deposit of around £4k and financing the rest via a PCP and have my eye on the TDI 140 SE estate.Can anyone suggest what sort of deal I ought to be looking at here in terms of price for the car and apr for the finance? An alternative is a nearly new old shape model: I have found a < 1 year old TDI 130 sport estate with less than 10k on the clock priced around 14k.Is this a good deal or would I be better buying the new model?
• No MOT Certificate 8 Sep 2005 (Forum)
  I was not given an MOT certificate. The car is funded through a Private Contract Plan, through VW Finance. I was told at the dealership that the MOT certificate would be sent to VW Finance. It had been a long day, so I left, happy with that knowledge, but then started wondering on the way home how I get the vehicle taxed at the end of October, and was wondering what happens if I have to produce my documents at a police station.
• selling car on pcp. 12 Aug 2004 (Forum)
  I have a car on pcp. dont want it any longer, but how do i tell the prospective buyer that i will use the funds from car to pay off pcp (finance i guess). can i write out a letter which is signed by myself, would this be enough for the person buying my car. i cant raise the funds to pay off the finance first. i will get an extra 3-4 grand by selling it private, rather than the poultry??
