[quote=""535dboy""][quote=""Minda""]Online limit is £25k per day so could do it in three days, but then its also three days for bacs payments to clear.[/quote]

Just bacs four days ahead then no worries

Any other way really is a pia

Still think you should have bought a range rover though![/quote]

Driven RR, not really a fan, ok to drive, not for me to own

[quote=""Chompers""][quote=""x555""]When i picked up my new 3'er i just paid them with a cheque but that was under 50k mind.Having a floor limit of 50k sounds pretty dull to me when most of there cars are over that :roll:
Just phone the dealer and they can tell you the score surely.I know one thing i wouldn't pay in advance untill my car is ready to collect because once they have your money there's no urgency to get you your car.Deposit yes full payment no chance.[/quote]

In prinicple I would agree, however Minda is collecting his new baby on one of the busiest days of the year and for ease of hand over, paying in advance and confirming all is clear will make picking up his new baby a much more enjoyable experience.

However the best person to speak to is the finance bod at the dealer, not long now Minda :driving:[/quote]

Agreed Go a couple of days before, have 95% of the handover then which means on d-day you can just grab the keys and go

Have you asked dealer if they could deliver to your house on the day before. I've done it 4 times now n

I know we all like saving money but CHAPS isn't really breaking the bank when you are transferring £50k +

I CHAPS'd my cash when I bought the chippy and it was worth every penny not worring if it would clear in time or if my card would work etc.

Anyway, not long mate now...

...until you swap for a RR :fuelfire:

Just kiddin'

That RRS loos ok but the new one just looks like Blackpool on wheels, they over styled to death which is a real shame as for that oversized 4x4 Renault Megan :shock: I did see some pics of that a while back and it looked a whole lot better. Don't know if its the wheels or colour but that looks :sick2:
