I am posting it on the RS3 forum because (i) I will be looking at a car approximately at the price of an RS3 (e.g. RS3 saloon, TT-RS); and (ii) it's one of the busier areas, with people who are / have recently gone through the purchase process.
I bought my first ever car (S1), and of course it's simple enough: just save the cash, order, keep saving and pay as big a deposit as you want a week before collection to set your monthly payments.
My question is: how does it work when you already have a car? In particular:
- When do they value your existing car?
- Are you allowed to keep your existing car for the 4-6 months it takes for your new one to arrive?
- Does the same apply if you're crossing brands, e.g. coming to Audi from a different brand or moving away from Audi?
- Do you have to time it with when your insurance ends to avoid being stung, or can you transfer?
I'd like to swap cars regularly, but cannot afford to be paying for two at a time...
Thanks in advance for your insights!
