It’s goodnight from me ……

I'd not be too worried, even if the offer does run out, running it through the system will get you another similar offer as the market hasn't changed, if anything, it might even be slightly higher than the last one. I got three offers from Cazoo over a month whilst making up my mind what to do and every time it was a little more!

I think you might be right on now being a sweet spot time to get the long range car as well. Pretty nice deal with the affinity scheme.

I have just got another offer, and yes it went up another £50.

@Lincs Robert how long do you get after you accept the offer to handover the car ?

WBAC operate in this fashion, they keep increasing the offer price over a few weeks. Then when you decide to go there, they compare the offers, view the car and then knock down the value !.
This appears to be common place with them, the people I have spoken too have never achieved the best offer they give.
The offer they make ( good or bad ) tends to be only fixed for THAT day.
It’s all about getting you there in the first place I think.
I can see prices staying strong for a couple of months yet, until the bubble pops and the prices start to fall.
Limited availability of new cars, shortage of HGV drivers and this craziness over fossil fuel demand, has all combined to increase the residuals on EV’s !.
The government should be applauding the adopters of EV’s right now !.
Just think of all of that extra demand for fossil fuel if there was no EV drivers ?.

Cazoo don't haggle like WBAC, as long as you've been honest about the condition. They just look over it very quickly and take the car as agreed.

That’s a much better idea ?!.
I just don’t like there banking method to be honest.
I have been scammed once, never again.
It’s a whole world ? of pain, that I never want to go through ever again.

Yes and no, maybe.
Got a ridiculous offer from Cazoo, virtually what I paid for mine, and have just ordered a LR 5. Waiting for approval for the affinity price and as soon as that comes will confirm a sale to cazoo.
Biggest fear is not having an EV at all.
I am gambling that the new ZS LR will be a heftier price, as will any facelifted 5, therefore current LR 5 may be the last cheapish 250 miler.

I get exactly what you're saying, I can't see the new ones being available for <£23k.
My cazoo price has gone up over £100 over the last 2 weeks.
I still can't decide what to do!

Although I have no evidence to the effect, It is rumoured that the Affinity scheme is ending. No idea if true and if it will be replaced by anything similar.

I'm sure the newer facelifted ZS and 5 will be nicer looking and even longer range but this covers the bases for me.
For local work the extra battery/range means no concern with putting heating/AC on whenever I want and in general the extra range speaks for itself.

I have just accepted Cazoo's offer to buy my car, couldn't resist at the price really, and now have a 5LR on order.
To get the offer, it only takes 2 minutes and you only answer a few questions and only personal stuff they ask is for your email to send the offer to.
You have 7 days to accept the offer. If you do you just click on the button, it asks a few more questions, I have elected to drop it off at a local centre, and you are then presented with time slots over the next 7 days, so you could go the max of 14 days start to finish.
Now the banking part, really easy. You select which bank you are with, it then directs you to your own banks online banking system. Your bank then controls things and you allow a payment to be made to you by Cazoo. Once this is done it then re-directs you back to where you were.
This is the page you see. Whole process so far very simple and easily done.
