Is Pomphrey of Sittingbourne a Financial Services Authority (FSA) approved company? Return to top
Yes. Please click here to view our Initial Disclosure Document. Introduced on 14th January 2005, the new FSA rules will change the way customers buy cars and vans in the future. Among the many advantages of the new regime will be clearer information for consumers about general insurance policies. Consumers will be able to compare insurance policies more easily, with clear information on any significant and unusual exclusion, understand the nature and cost of the policy they are buying and have access to the Financial Ombudsman if they have a complaint and to the Financial Services Compensation Scheme if firms go out of business. Please contact us for more information or visit www.fsa.gov.uk.

Why do many of your new car prices include a Finance Deposit Allowance (FDA)? Return to top
At Pomphreys, we're constantly looking at new ways to ensure our customers always pay the lowest possible price. Sometimes, in addition to our normal discounts off the MRRP, we will also include the FDA saving in the advertised price. The FDA saving is the amount that the Manufacturer will pay towards your finance deposit when you choose to finance on certain Finance plans.
If you didn't want to finance your purchase, but would still like to take advantage of the savings available, we would suggest that you only finance the minimum amount over the minimum term (usually £1500 over 12 months) and pay cash for the rest. By following our suggestion you will be able to significantly reduce the total amount you pay for your new vehicle. Please call us on 01795 476222 for more details. Please note that the FDA amount shown cannot normally be used in conjunction with 0% finance offers and the FDA amount varies according to make and model.

Do you take part-exchanges? Return to top
Yes. If you are considering part exchanging your current vehicle we are able to provide you with a quote. For an accurate quote please contact one of our Internet Sales Consultants on 01795 476222. If you are Part exchanging your vehicle, due to the new government legislation you must bring us the original V5 registration document and a current MOT certificate (if your vehicle is over 3 years old) together with any service history, book pack, radio code and spare key.
It is the customer’s responsibility to advise Pomphreys, before a valuation is given, if a part exchange vehicle has been imported.

What is a Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) Finance Plan? Return to top
A PCP allows you to finance a car but at lower monthly repayments than traditional Hire Purchase or Personal Loan. With traditional methods of purchasing a car your payments are based on having to repay the entire cost of the car equally over the period of the agreement. However with PCP you are able to defer a proportion of the cost of the car as a Final Payment which is payable at the end of the agreement. A Guaranteed Future Value (GFV) is set based on the car's estimated value at the end of the agreement, which will be equal to the Final Payment.

If I'm not financing the vehicle through Pomphreys, what are the payment methods available? Return to top
We require cleared funds on the delivery/collection. We accept payment in the form of credit transfer, debit or credit cards, bankers draft, building society cheque, personal cheque and cash (the amount of cash is governed by money laundering regulations.

How is my vehicle taxed? Return to top

Do Pomphrey of Sittingbourne comply with the Home Shopping: Distance Selling Regulations and what is my right to cancel? Return to top
Yes. At Pomphreys we believe it is important for all our customers to have all the information on our vehicles and services before, during and after sale, whether bought over the internet or over the phone.
The key features of our compliance to this regulation are that we will supply clear information, including details of the goods/services offered, delivery arrangements, payment details, our details as a supplier, prior information on your right to cancel before you buy and confirmation via email or letter when an order has been made. You, as a consumer, have a cooling-off period of 7 working days from your date of order when you have not visited one of our branches.

Is the vehicle mileage reading accurate? Return to top
To protect our customers we have vehicle mileages investigated by Vehicle Mileage Check Ltd (VMC). The mileage recorded on any vehicle may still be under investigation. The accuracy of its odometer reading therefore cannot be relied upon and should be disregarded until we can confirm the availability of the VMC report.
