Has anyone ever had PCP on a private sale?
From what I can gather, it can only be done via a garage that has a consumer credit licence.
So, to alleviate my problem (unless anyone answers yes to my first question) I have to get the garage to buy the car from the private individual, so I can buy it off the garage. Phew [img]images/graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] Hope you are still with me [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img]
How much should the garage add?
I agree that, for an [img]images/graemlins/24430-audibash.gif[/img] dealership, there are the costs: Checking the car over, repair neccessary items, hpi check, one year warranty cover, salesmans cut (anything else?)
Do you think it will be cheaper to goto a specialist dealer or even a non-audi garage?

Questions, questions [img]images/graemlins/sekret.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/rs4-button.jpg[/img] I find the bloody car, now it's all hassle..... but worth it [img]images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Alliance and leicester do a bubble payment profile on car finance, not sure if that will help but if it is one of the reasons for using a PCP then it might well do.

If the garage was to purchase the car then surely they would need to add VAT to the sale price!

Thanks. I'll check out A&L tomorrow, but I reckon they'll want it through a garage as well.

I'm sure that there is only VAT payable on the *difference* between what the dealer paid and the price they sell at for 2nd hand cars.

Yes you are right about the VAT, it is only payable on the difference
