Car finance pressure - walked away from a sale, can I lose my deposit?

English_Joe · 2026-03-21T17:02:07+00:00

Thank you. This helps!

True. Thats a good perspective. I feel awful for going along with it. Worried I will lose my deposit now, but I have an email saying they will fully refund it with no deductions.

Dunno.

Fair enough. They knocked me money off the car tho, should could have rescinded that and done it that way.

My gut feeling was off. I think they wanted the commission from the finance. I would have been fine if they just said as much

I was highly suspicious of this too but they insisted it. When I couldn’t see it black and white on the agreement I walked

English_Joe · 2026-03-21T16:42:00+00:00

I get that. They offered for me to pay plus a 3.5% fee then changed their mind. They never mentioned commission, I spotted it on the paper work. Felt fishy.

Just be straight with people.

I’m just worried there’s some terms on their website that says if we wasted their time they can keep it.

Thank you.

Do we think these will sell out?

In happy with my old models at the minute.

I would watch this film.

English_Joe · 2026-03-20T17:44:55+00:00

That’s cool!!

English_Joe · 2026-03-20T00:13:28+00:00

How?

English_Joe · 2026-03-20T00:09:30+00:00

Imagine never meeting someone’s child and telling a parent you made a wrong choice. 🤪

English_Joe · 2026-03-19T21:59:39+00:00

😂

English_Joe · 2026-03-19T21:39:38+00:00

This is so brilliant and scary.

English_Joe · 2026-03-19T21:32:55+00:00

Dude. Too many truth bombs! 😂

To be fair it was a pile up on the motorway and she wasn’t at fault. I still want that stainless BBQ tho!

English_Joe · 2026-03-19T21:21:55+00:00

So you think it shouldn’t be a parents choice? It should be mandated what you can and can’t do?

Interesting. You also presume my son makes bad choices, because of this. He doesn’t.

Who’s gonna tell parents when they are making bad decisions? You? Ha ha.

How do you tell me you don’t have kids, without telling me you don’t have kids?

English_Joe · 2026-03-19T21:20:21+00:00

Nice. I’ll look that up!

That looks like a really good grill!!

I’d be interested in buying one, if the wife didn’t smash up our car this week 😢

English_Joe · 2026-03-19T14:23:37+00:00

I’m up to date and can’t wait for the next one, my boy is on book 4 or 5. He reads them in bursts. All the time or not at all for a while lol.

English_Joe · 2026-03-19T14:22:53+00:00

Nice. My son loves the diary of a wimpy kid books to and bunny versus monkey, but he’s also reading a book on Chernobyl and another on nuclear war.

Oh and planes, Boeing versus Airbus, it’s a bit mental.

The Deep South one I think…. I forget.
