I took our car finance last week with VW Finance for a new car, I have signed the agreements on Monday this week. However today I have been made redundant and have not taken delivery of the car yet, I am supposed to pick the car up tomorrow. Does anyonw know where I stand on this, without my job, I cannot afford the car.

Should be a cooling off period. Check the terms.

And they would most likely wish to terminate the contract too if you're now (sadly) unable to afford the terms. Good luck on both accounts.

You should be fine. They should have explained about the cooling off period when you signed the contract though, naughty.

Thanks all who responded.

Luckily I took the car and have a job today, what luck........

A real squeaky bum moment when I heard the awful news, all will be fine.
