There’s the potential of an extension with this.
I assume the thought process behind it is the steeply rising APs due to the shortage. Once the shortage is resolved, prices should come down again (i believe it when i see it, but the point still has to be made).
Things like the furlough scheme were extended too back then – but if you now announce that you’ll do it for 3 years, you run “the risk” that you’re throwing £250 at APs that have already calmed down.
If that makes sense. I certainly don’t agree with it, but i can understand the sentiment behind it. It’s a business, after all. I’d see and wait.
And in case of @mitch, if there’s anything wrong with your car that impedes your comfort, they’ll happily accommodate an early termination. If you do that in the beginning of december, and the car gets delivered after march 2023, there’s no financial repercussions to it for you either (otherwise you pay a £50 early cancellation fee, and a pro-rata reduced GCB which then is probably around £590 or something).
