I have seen a used car at a VW main dealer

If i take arnold clarks HP/finance and pay the finance off (like within a month ) can this be done?

If the finance is taken can I pay it off early without a penalty (like within a month)

Reason I ask is I have seen a car and wont have the money available for 3 weeks and I think the dealer will give additional discount if take finance
anyone done this?


Thanks in advance

Assuming it's a regulated hire purchase agreement then you can 'withdraw' from the finance within 14 days by paying back the money you borrowed, plus a daily interest rate which will be shown on your agreement. It it's after 14 days then you'll need to request a settlement figure from the finance company and you'll have to stump up for any document fees outlined in the agreement.
