New Landmark 'Opportunity'
Ok, so I'd made the sensible decision to keep my 2013 HSE for a 4th year, spent a bit on new brake disks all round, 33000 miles and running perfectly.
I enquired about the extended warranty and now have another option to keep me awake tonight
If I give Mr salesman my car plus the cash I'm looking to spend on the extended warranty, road tax and new tyres, he in turn shall put me into a Waitrose Grey Landmark with privacy and tow pack, which he happens to have in stock, ready to go, delivery mileage. All for the same monthly payment as I currently fork out.
Seems to good to be true???? Approx 9% discount and a very competitive trade in price for my own car.
What am I missing???

Sounds great, but my mum says there's no such thing as a free lunch.

To be boringly practical, surely the hidden cost is in the length of time you will have to keep the payments going on the new one versus the old one. Or am I missing something?
