Hi All,
I'm after some advice.
Bought a Honda CRV at the end of my PCP deal and currently paying for it through a persoanl loan with 2 and half years left with approx £10.5k outstanding. Current part ex price of the car is seems to be around £10.5k.
Keen to change but obviously got no equity in my car.
My current car has done approx 80k miles and i tend to do around 20k miles/year.
Am i best just to stick with my car or any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

If it's proving reliable then don't change, especially when you're doing 20k a year as you know the car I'd say run it until it's uneconomical to repair then change.

If anything the time to change was at the end of the PCP, what's your reason for wanting to change?

At the end of my PCP, I would have happily gone in to a new crv but the new model isn’t able to tow my caravan with it being a hybrid. As id gone over the mileage, thought the best was to buy it as I knew the history of the car.
No massive urgency to change, just wondering when would be the best time to do it etc.
Not great at these things so was just after some advice

You did the right thing by buying then which means it makes even more sense to stick.
