handing your car back

[badboypolo]

I have had my car for 3 years and took it over 5years, can I hand it back to them saying I dont want it and not have to pay anything? a guy in my work is doing it with his bora sport as he is getting a new focus ST and he still owes nine grand on his bora.

I think you have to have paid over 50% off, but TBH, I can't remember.

Not really my sort of thing, I paid £90 for my car

I think it would depend on how much is left to pay and what the car is now worth. If its finance on the car then you will have to pay what ever the settlement is.

Hope this helps

All this finanace business, tut tut, pay cash, makes it all easier.

Usually when you get about halfway through your agreement (around about now really) VW will be in touch to offer you a settlement with a view to part-exing on a newer (or new) car. Happens quite a lot, although often you may have to add a little extra cash into the settlement to close the deal, as your car will most likely be valued at a touch less than your remaining debt!

You can hand the car back and settle the finance at any point during the deal as long as you're prepared to use a bit of cash to make up the numbers though, so if you want to do it, then it is possible. I was going to take this route with my GTI and have a new one, but have now decided that it simply isn't affordable on my current wages

As long as you don't mind it saying corgi on the bottom, I'd say give it a go

haha i'd be impressed if vw gave me a toy golf gti in part exchange for my car

Agreed.

Yup... I never buy nothing unless I can pay with cash for it... Best way to do things imo
