New car - any opinions ?

According to the SEAT dealer, we can cancel at any time. The half way through thing is if you want to simply return the car and stop the whole contract; then you need to have paid at least 50% of the contract amount. We want to simply pay the whole amount. and end the agreement keeping the car.

The other option is to pay cash but then we only get a £1,500 discount, not the £2,000 that PCP offers. The car will not be available until June (probably), so we have time to mull it over.

Mazda CX-30. More reliable than the European stuff and more economical, if you get the SkyActiv-X engine.

What the heck is going on with the world!

The other day I eyed a Suzuki of some sort, a 4x4 looking one. I thought it was a Toyota Rav4 but then spotted the Suzuki badge. Later that evening I figured if I ever wanted a rav4 but a cheaper version, I'd take a look at Suzuki. The damn thing starts at £46k!

Then the other day I saw a Mini. I really like the paint colours on Minis and wondered what green ones are available pre-owned. On the Mini website, a new Mini is due to be launched, a convertible electric one. Hey great, I might like a electric convertible! Then I saw the price which starts at £53k. FOR A MINI!!!!

Anyway, back on topic...

I think the Suzuki you saw was an Across, the reason it looks like a Rav-4, is because it is a Rav-4, hence the price

Well, picked up the car yesterday (a month earlier than expected which was nice), phoned SEAT (VW) financial services and cancelled the PCP today, at a cost of £12.12p. So, we saved an extra £500 (minus £12.12p) by picking the PCP option, and there was no issue cancelling it straight away and paying the full amount

Have you got a pic' - they do look nice. A deep red one materialised in the village a short while back and that looks really nice.
