Help - New Car/Part Ex
Options
I currently have a 16 Plate Vauxhall Astra. my settlement figure is £8,000 and I pay £330 Per Month on a 0% Finance Deal. The Part Exchange Price I have been given is £8500
I've placed a new factory order with Audi and the car won't be available until early May, meaning a further 2 Payments totalling £660 to Vauxhall
I'm tempted to pay off the settlement to avoid paying £660 which i'll loose on the part ex (between now and the car being ready) ...
But Audi have advised that the £8500 quote will need to be revalued.. is it likely my car will depreciate in value of £660+ in 2 months?
Thanks In Advance

Surely the deal is complete at the time you place the order?0

It'll depreciate yes, but i'd doubt to the tune of £660.
Even £2000 depreciation for the year would only work out at £330 or so over two months.0 -

There will be a clause in the contract to allow for the change in value of the trade in if the order is delayed.
A way round it is to give them the car now - not always convenient though.0 -
On paper it will become a year older after 1 st March so instead of 2 years old it will be 3 years old.0

The age identifier on the plate of newly-registered cars might change, but that doesn't mean your car suddenly becomes 3yo instead of 2.5yo.
Nobody can predict used car values three months ahead. But you could look at the relative values of ones three months older than yours...0
