Talk of the devil he has just rang me and said:-
They have declined me for the personal contract hire option.
However they have asked to see 3 months worths of bank statements as they cab offer me the car on 0% finance for the 5 years!
To be honest i really dont get how this works!
So they wont give me finance for 8k when i can prove i have 6k i ready to put towards it!
But they will give me the value of 14k for the new car pending bank statements

any way 0% finance will be much better for you in the long run. You will own the car afterwards.

When I've borrowed money in the past its been a matter of seconds..
Also checking your credit rating / doing a credit search etc. on your name is not something you should do lots as it also affects your rating.

I dissagree, because the car will probably be worth less than what you owe after 2-3 years..

Took a few days for the paperwork to be circulated, processed, checked, returned and then me notified on my current Mazda and my previous Octavia
Depends on who's doing it (both at the dealership and credit company) and how much of a rush they are in to get it done etc

Thats why i went for the lease as to have the car for 3yrs it would cost just under 8k.
I refuse to pay 14k for a car over 5years and at the end of the 5yrs be offered 2k for it.
I went for leasing as i figured the payments would be low and i wouldnt be loosing a huge amount in depreciation

Can you not just get a bank loan? Might work out cheaper depending on what you've been offered by GMAC or whatever finance company they've used.
Also - those "credit score" things you can buy for a fiver? Forget them. They are useless. Every creditor uses a different scoring method, there is no universal one that everyone uses.
