Hey Folks,

About to take delivery of a new car hopefully this week,

It’s a contract hire from a main dealer.

Is it normal for a dealer to want to drive a car over 700 miles to deliver the car ?

I did ask if it would be done on a transporter but they weren’t willing to do this.

In the past I have had contract hires and delivery has only been within 200 miles or so so it was always driven by a driver.

Is it normal practice to drive a car such a long distance, surely it’s not classed as a new car at that point

Didn’t find out the dealer until they contact for the lease/hire documents.
