Car finance

Should I extend my car finance before the current agreement is over? Audi are offering me a new deal 5 months ahead of the end of the current deal ending and they saying this is a limited time offer which has made me suspicious!

Any advice appreciated.

  • Do you want to?
  • Probably trying to meet their end of year target.

    100% agree they need to hit end of year targets, they are not doing you a favour
    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.
  • It's either do it now or do it at the end of the current deal, just wondered if I was likely to get a better deal layer on. Anyone have experience with this?

    Probably not, unless they have some cars they need to shift before the end of the month and your choice will be limited to one of those..

    Even then you maybe able to get a better deal elsewhere.

  • Thanks for the feedback, I am at least assured that this isn't something that is completely in their favour.
