10% of the order value rather than £10k. so in my case £6,200.00

Who’s your OPC ?
Sorry, yes I meant 10%, not £10k. My OPC is Tewkesbury - part of Dick Lovett group.

Mine is Mid Sussex (Syntner Group). Apparently this 10% thing is unique to them. Just my luck.

Mid sussex wont do it over the phone. Its either bank transfer or F2F with a debit card.

This was in 2019, and as I live 2 hours away they had no problem taking a phone payment, surely bank transfer is no issue from home.

With cars on PCP you are not in charge of your own destiny. I want to change my car when i want to change it, i will do whatever mileage in it i wish and without the worry of excess mileage charges at the end of the term. PCP is easier on cashflow, that's why its popular, but it is not the the most cost effective way to "have use of" a car, especially if, like me, you will keep it more than three years, This is even more true of a Porsche as they hold their value very well in the early years. Remember, finance companies exist because they make a profit by buying the car themselves and then renting it to somebody who will end up paying more in rentals than the car will depreciate over the rental term, even when factoring in the interest charges. Manufacturers love it because it gives them a constant supply of buyers for their products every 2-4 years (when their existing period ends and they have to give their current car back) and the stealers get a nice kick back from the finance company when a plan is taken out. Stealers hate me as i will never take out their finance packages - i put it on my flexible mortgage and pay 2% interest - they can't get anywhere near that! Also, i have a car with no finance recorded against it, and can do with it as i please, and pay down the (cheap) borrowed money on my terms. Happy days!
