Dazzle Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Looking for a bit of help from someone in the know about car finance. Basically I took a car out on finance 2 years ago and the plan was over 5 years. I now want a better car as I have a better job and can afford one, plus I have a bit of a dream car and now will be the only time I have the chance to get one with no mortgage/babies yet. Anyhoo, my question is this, someone at my work told me that once you have paid half the balance of your finance you can give the car back to the garage and cancel the contract. I have no idea if this is correct or not and was basically wondering if this is a possibility or whether I'm stuck with a car I dont really want anymore for 5 years. Cheers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swarley Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 What does the small print of the contract say? There must be a section about early termination? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is definitely the case, however, it may adversely affect your credit rating, I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are different types of finance available. What does it say at the top of the credit agreement? If it specifically says “Hire-Purchase Agreement regulated by the Consumer Credit Act 1974” or “Conditional Sale Agreement regulated by the Consumer Credit Act 1974”, then you can terminate the agreement if you have paid half the total amount payable (including the deposit & any final payment) Look at section 99 of the Consumer Credit Act for details However, if it says anything else, (most commonly "Credit Agreement regulated by the Consumer Credit Act 1974"), then you can't terminate - you would need to ask for an early settlement figure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder how the girl that can't talk will get on? I just read an article there on biscuit woman - 900 times an hour she says it. That's nearly as much as Eamonn Holmes. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-2132412/The-woman-says-biscuit-900-times-hour-Listen-Tourette-s-sufferer-breaks-taboo-humour.html 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She kept saying "biscuits" after every couple of words! The channel 4 announcers have form. A couple of years ago they would introduce episodes of The Simpsons without actually saying the family name. It would be "The Plimpsons" or "The Mimpsons" etc. And it was different announcers that were in on it. After a few weeks, a lassie finally said the proper name and something along the lines of "I know, I give up, can't think of any more to keep it going" Probably an office bet or something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MangoBroccoli Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Anyway, I have a question. Is there a website that catalogues full player stats for the season? (For player and teams) For instance, if I want to check how many key passes/assists Darren Fletcher has made. Or his average distance covered per game. Then compare it with his teammates. Does anyone know if there exists such a comprehensive website? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
