Question on car finance agreement - early settlement

Any idea what sort of bonus it would have been?
He's a nice guy, did her a cracking deal on the car however he didn't tell her or us that if we cancelled within 14 days we would get the £750 and no pay interest. I feel bad he wouldn't get the bonus, but sort of serves him right for not mentioning it.0 -
No, it will depend on his individual incentive structure and how many vehicles he has sold in the month/quarter, etc. and also what incentives the dealership receive from Audi.0

Part of me says he's done what he said he'd do all along (with the exception of the 58 day interest charge), so she should really stick to her word and make the first payment.0

Thank you David, it is a regulated agreement.
Hi TrevUK,
It must be cancelled within the 14 days. That's really important.
Best wishes,

We bought a Skoda recently using VAG finance (same group as Audi). The deal with finance included 3 years free servicing, and additional discount off the purchase price. I paid the VAG loan off in full after about a month and the incentives still stand.loose does not rhyme with choose but lose does and is the word you meant to write.0

Other half called today. The Audi agreement hasn't been activated apparently and it isn't on the system. It's also not on the system at the dealership.
So the upshot is after calling and speaking to a rude guy at the dealership, if we cancel the agreement we will keep the servicing as that was with the car but we will lose the £750 apparently as the agreement isn't activated.
As my partner has already informed Audi that she wishes to cancel it, they won't activate it now. So effectively lost the £750! What a nightmare. Be aware, make sure that the agreement is activated!!!
We are going to pop in and speak to the neighbour tonight to see if he has any pull, even if it is to actually get it activated and then pay a month as that would be cheaper than losing the £750!0
