Yeah, i'd totally fogotten about the different PCP rates, so ignore that comment. With regards to the mileage limit, i was always told that its only a ball park figure. So for example, if you are on a 10k miles plan over 3 years, they have calculated your guaranteed value (and naturally monthly fee's) based on what that cars worth in 36 months with 30k miles on it. Obviously, if you then turn up with 45k miles on it they will hit you with them mileage charges. I was told however, that if you say had 35k miles on that car; yet it was still worth the guaranteed value, they wouldnt hit you with those extra mileage charges. As i say, this is what several dealerships have told me, yet i have never had a car on PCP so im unsure as to how true this is, maybe mowflow can shed some light? I guess it also all depends on what your doing after 3 years, if your taking another car from the same dealership they might not be as bothered, as they can usually offset it against the new car.
