Citroen Elect 3 - coming to the end of my term and I have the option to purchase outright for £4500 or change for another car. My question is the car will be worth £5500-£6000 if I want to change for another car what happens to the equity over the £4500? Can it be used as a deposit on another car? I have a 3 door and would like a 5 door.

  • Yes any equity in your existing car will be passed on as a deposit against you new car. I've done elect 3 finance for the past 9 years and this has always been the case
