I'll ask the wife for you when she gets up! She works for a bank Minda.

Guy came in a few days for a cheque to cover his new Vanquish! I'll ask which is best.

Yes - cheque is one option, another is simple Chip & PIN - if you have the money in your account they'll take it off that. Or you can ask your bank to issue you a bankers draft (costs £20 to £25) so I'd try debit card first. Just phone and ask if they have that option - sure they will. HTHs

Ask them if they accept Credit Card... If they do, ask for a 1% discount for paying by Debit Card!

I get charged 28p for every transaction I accept on debit card but for Credit Cards I get charged something like 1.79% of the transaction value. On 50k thats nearly a 1k!

...or get them to throw in a Golf Umbrella :)

I have the same 10 plate (facelift) 40d SE - had it just over a month. Love it, love it, love it, love it.

Trying to pick up some winter tyres/alloys for it at the mo. Not a massive fan of the 20" run flats.

Drives like a dream, only negative is the twin turbo doesn't put you back into your seat enough for me.
