Journalist with a degree in stating the bleeding obvious.
Simple fact of life - read and understand what you are entering into.
I had a £12k ballon on my D4 at the end of its finance period on a car, according to we buy any car, was worth £27k
It's just a case of doing some very simple research and simple maths before you sign up

Simple rule of journalism - if you want to sell copy and the numerically illiterate get themselves into difficulties, it must be the supplier's fault! Write article accordingly...2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2

So in reality you're best putting no deposit down, then at least you can hand a car back with nothing lost or if the residuals are better than expected roll it over to the next deal. If you lease then you definitely will not have a better trade in than expected.DS3 TDV6 HSE - Silver with Alpaca (old one) Gone

All you need to do is find a finance company gullable enough to enter into a PCP agreement without the client first paying a deposit... 2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2

I've done loads of PCPs and rarely put anything in. If anything a max of £500. You'll never see it again because its value is eroded in lower monthly payment; unless you buy the car at the end you've lost it at the end of the term. Similarly if you want to trade in then get the trade-in value back as a cheque.____
