NEW CAR HANDOVER DAY
THE BIG DAY IS NEARLY HERE! TO ENSURE EVERYTHING GOES SMOOTHLY, IT’S WORTH CHECKING YOU HAVE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION AVAILABLE.
Procedure & documentation
To ensure a smooth delivery, we ask you to consider the following details, some of which will require your attention prior to collecting your vehicle.
VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Financial payment – preferred method of payment (bank transfer)
If settlement is through a bank or finance house, other than PEUGEOT Financial Services Ltd or VW Financial Services Ltd, we will require payment three days prior to delivery and cleared funds before the vehicle can be released. Our company bank account details are as follows:
Account name: CATHEDRAL MOTOR COMPANY LTD
Bank name: Barclays Bank
Sort code: 200771

Other payments
Please note cheques or drafts are not accepted. Switch or any other debit cards will be accepted on the day of handover. (If paying on debit card, please prenotify bank of transaction.) All card payments are limited to £1,000.
Balance of any payments above £1,000 must be paid by bank transfer. We do not accept American Express.
Personal registration plates
Since the closure of all local DVLA offices, we are no longer able to assist in the transfer or retention of any registration. This can now take up to six weeks to process; all paperwork has to be posted to DVLA Swansea.
Any retention must be processed at the time of order as we are unable to accept your partexchange without documents. A refundable holding amount of £250 will be in place until we receive all documents.
Employee privilege forms
If you qualify for any employee privileges, we will require the relevant form three working days prior to delivery.
Used car administration fee
For each used car sale, Arbury will charge an administration fee of £162, including VAT. This fee is to facilitate performing a provenance check on the vehicle, number plates, vehicle inspection, warranty administration and the DVLA online registration.
FCA compliance
You will receive two emails from accountmanager@automotivecreditcompliance. com. One email will contain your Statement of Demands and Needs, and the other will have your GAP opt-in email. To accept the product, you will be provided with a pin.
Fuel
Your new car will be supplied with a minimum of 10 litres of fuel.
Cancellation Fee
Once your finance documents are signed, any cancellation made by you, the customer, could result in a buy-back charge of up to £350.
Work required
Please note: any remedial work or accessories required on any car must be agreed and written on your vehicle order and confirmed by a member of our management team; no verbal agreement for work will be accepted. If it is not written down, no work will be carried out.
THINGS TO KNOW IF YOU’RE

Payments
Any part-exchange or vehicle cashback payments will be made within 3–5 working days. If you require a faster, same-day payment for your cashback, this will incur a £15 charge.
Personal data
Please ensure that your part-exchange is cleared of all personal data before it is handed to Arbury; this includes clearing history on your satellite navigation system and deleting mobile telephone contacts. Please check the glove compartment and other storage areas for items containing personal data, e.g. receipts.

MAKING ELECTRIC DRIVING A BREEZE
TOP TIPS FOR GETTING THE MOST OUT OF YOUR EV
If your new car has an electrified powertrain, we’re here to make your switch as seamless as possible. Read our handy guides below, and if you have any questions, please do come and see a member of Team Arbury. Our knowledgeable team can talk you through charging, electricity tariffs and how Clean Air Zones work in more detail.
Charging
It may seem like a world away from the petrol pumps, but charging your electric or plug-in hybrid vehicle is actually very simple!
First things first, you can power up at home or on the go (covered below), and you can charge your car at any time and in any weather – don’t believe the myth, you can safely charge your EV in the rain!
Home charging
More often than not, you’ll want to charge your vehicle from the comfort of your own home. If you have a driveway or garage, you can install your own specially designed charging point. Alternatively, you can use a standard UK three-pin socket. Charge your electric car like you would your smartphone or laptop – simply plug it in when you get home and it’ll be ready to go the next day. Simple!
Home charging isn’t just convenient, it’s also the cheapest charging method. We recommend contacting your electricity provider to find out about the available tariffs – you might be able to take advantage of a cheaper tariff by charging overnight, for example.
Charging at work
With EVs increasing in popularity, many businesses are considering installing charging stations on their premises – for personal and fleet vehicles.
Public charging
The UK government is committed to an electric future and is continually expanding the UK’s charging network. There are new public charge points popping up every day – according to EDF Energy, there are now more than 42,000 charge point connectors across the UK in over 15,500 locations. Websites like Zap-Map will help you easily find the nearest charge point.
Optimising your EV range
Your new electric car will be suitable for everyday use and long-distance journeys. But there are things you can do to optimise your EV and help it run as efficiently as possible for as long as possible. You might already do some of these, as many help improve the efficiency of all vehicles, regardless of powertrain.
1. Adjust your driving style
As with ICE vehicles, higher speeds, harder acceleration and braking use more power. So, while it may be tempting to take full advantage of your EV’s immediate torque, it’s sensible to take it easy when setting off.
2. Pack light
Increased loads require more power, so pack sensibly when you head out on a road trip!
3. Engage eco mode
Most EVs and hybrids have a form of eco mode, which helps reduce power consumption and improve mileage. Many infotainment systems include a feature that gives you an indication of your energy consumption and remaining range. Ask the team if you’re unsure where to find this information!
4. Temperature check
On-board comfort features like air con and heating use more power. Many EVs include a pre-heat or cool feature, which can be engaged while the car is charging. Not only will you feel more comfortable when you get in, but you’ll use less energy. If you’re driving solo, it’s also an idea to use the heated seats rather than heat the whole cabin.
5. Plan your charging location
If you regularly drive long distances, it makes sense to find charging points along your desired route. Websites like Zap-Map can help.
6. Seek shelter
Keeping your vehicle in a garage during cold snaps can help your car hold its battery charge for longer. Plus, the interior won’t need to be heated as much. Win-win!
7. Tyre pressure
As with petrol and diesel cars, keeping your tyre pressure at the optimal level can help enhance your efficiency and range.
