    I have just been discussing the number of vehicles on the scheme, We are so lucky we had delivery of our Ford Focus ACTIVE-X back in Oct 21, Waited 3mths for it and boy do we feel lucky paying I think £695ap.

    Don’t think it’s on the scheme now and fully loaded as ours’s is I think the panoramic roof is now a £900 option, My concern is something going wrong with it with so much technology in it with regard to chips or a module going down could result in the car sat at the dealers for ‘x’ amount of time. Front parking sensors keep going off and nothing on them not mucky so possible issue arising.

    Who knows what’s going to happen, I think their will be a decline in folk on the scheme simply down to economics across the board with prioritising where they need to spend their money with household bills rising. Folk are going to be looking at a lot more than what you get for your allowance each month and some will be questioning do I really need the car or am I going to have to adjust accordingly.

    A little more positivity into where they could help more or temporary relaxing of some rules rather than just a PR scripted we have to put a response out which to be fair helps or advises nobody currently on the scheme, I don’t personally see anymore has been added from the CEO than customers already didn’t know before he put it out there.
