Will Mercedes UK finance my vehicle after end of lease?

[the-photographer]

Hi everyone, this question is for someone else at work.

He has a C-class which is coming to the end of a three year lease, it's got a £12,000 end payment.

1. Can Mercedes offer another finance deal, maybe another lease or is the vehicle now too old (it will be 4 years)

2. I assume he will be dealing with the direct, thus there is little or no room for negotiation if they make a finance offer?

(yes I know he could finance the end-payment by many other means, but this could be a lazy way out)


Thanks for the help

Depends, but you'd probably find the monthly price is the same as it would cost to get a new one on PCP/ CH.

Unlikely as the balloon payment/ GFV is usually set in stone from day 1
