It's a small world, I was there today test driving. I had it clarified that it's 3.9% APR on current inventory stock orders delivered by 14th Jan.

If you don't mind me asking, what rate of APR did you get through Black Horse? Following a non-fault write off I'm looking to get a MY replacement sorted quickly. After a trip to the showroom to test drive I've been informed that the 3.9% offer on the site is being replaced by a different...

So the car was in the service centre on Monday and most of yesterday. They've now fixed all issues bar the rear screen which they're going to replace once the part is stock as they could only polish out so much. As with the pick up experience on Thursday I was impressed by the service levels...

No issues on main roads however it's a tad firm around the country lanes which causes the kids' car seats (they're both in booster type seats rather than a baby / toddler car seat) to move around a bit due to the fake leather like interior. However, I'm pleased I went with style over comfort as...

I've just got back after taking the kids out for a spin and dazzling them with the light show, the youth of today are seriously spoilt! They've declared it the best car they've ever been in which when you compare it with a 14 plate Kia and a Golf I guess it's not saying much. Anyway, the good...

Unfortunately I didn’t get that far in discussions before they offered the spec I originally ordered on the same finance terms. And thanks for ‘the list’ tip off!

I basically stressed that I wasn’t fussy… <insert joke here>

They said it’d be the same base price as when ordered (April) however the extra 2,100 charge for the 20s would be removed and the finance would need updating. No change for the colour swap as the black and blue are the same list price.

Finance and with the same agreement

In the region of 950-1k, or 760 if I multi car it with my other car through Admiral.

My original order was placed on 8th April. I’m not sure there is much science behind it as the 1st call I received was offering blue / 19 in Southampton that I said I wanted to think about. I then got another call 10 mins later saying they’d found an exact match (cheers Oliver!).

I got added to ‘the list’ yesterday and managed to get the spec I originally ordered (black / black / 20s due Sept - Oct) despite declaring I wasn’t fussy. Off to pick it up tomorrow at Staines. Apologies if this has been covered before but has anyone got any experience of getting company car...

Interesting, thanks for that. So even with 6k miles on the clock it could still be classed as unused and therefore new and qualify for 100% FYA.

I saw this earlier. I noticed it was listed in the 'new' section, however does anyone know how the tax man would classify it for a LTD company purchase? I assume it would technically be a used purchase and therefore not qualify for the full 100% capital allowance?

With the shift in date from 18-30 June to Aug / Sept I've bitten the bullet and extended the e208 on hire from Elmo. Looks like a few more months of driving a car with a go kart steering wheel.
