When i purchased mine i was reccomended by abarth to put my milage as low as possible its at 4k to get my monthly payments as low as possible... Opps!

I used it when I bought the mx-5 and had three miserable years with the payments hanging over me whenever they were making redundancies at one of our employers. So I'd only buy a car I could afford without finance these days.

I bought mine from John. But then i would because he is a dealer!!!!
My pcp meant i could get exactly the car i wanted with Monza and Konis, a reasonable monthly figure and a low apr.
I ham happy as a pig in s@£t  

Just going to pick up my new A500 from Rockingham cars next weekend, can't wait. I bought mine on a PCP. They are good as the payments are low and if after 3 years you intend to replace the car then you are not splashing loads out on HP for something you are not going to keep. I have bought several cars on a type of PCP plan with ford, VW and found it is best to put down a low deposit and as all the dealers are desperate to sell in this climate there are loads of low deposit deals. Almost like paying to borrow the car. You can almost get away with dumping your banger on them for the deposit. found the milage doesn't really do much to the repayments unless you are a type of person who worries about a tenner or there. Found 10,000 miles is more than ok. If you want to own the car for more than 3 years it is best to put down a bigger deposit and get the lowest APR as possible on HP, but if you are like me when 3 years come and get the warranty itch and want to renew then i think PCP is the best way. However you pay for it what i have seen of the Abarth so far it is a cracking car, built for smiling in. Have fun..
