Lease car can't be collected til weeks after lease ends

I am in the same boat with Citroen. I was offered the chance of taking it to a Citroen Garage. However, as they are rubbish I can see there being problems. So I wrote to Citroen and told them that I will be charging them £50 a day for parking over the agreement. They wrote me a letter back just highlighting that I need to look after it until they pick it up and nothing about paying for my parking rate.

If they don't pay it I will take them to small claims as it is a right pain for me that they are picking it up late. But what I love is if returned it late to them they would charge me £255.

Pain in the arse I know - but could you not bring the car back to Citroen Finances/Citroen Uks head office - or is that too far away.

Its what id be thinking of doing just to be rid of the fking thing.

Thing I don't get though - is that surely its in their interest to be properly helpful about things like this - as from their viewpoint - you are a potential customer for another 2/3 year lease or whatever it is.

Chaps at Citroen dealing with this sound like muppets tbh
