Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

If you think there aren't any good finance deals around at the moment, think again. Check the small print and you might find your perfect deal.

judging by the lack of deals available on desirable models in the used sector at the moment you might think it's a sellers market, but scratch the surface and there are more than a few deals around.

True, there aren't any cut-price 'all stock must go deals on the popular big-cab, big-engine tractors where dealers are making good money but ex-fleet and older tractors are being pitched competitively for limited market share.

RenaultTrucks' affiliated used dealerships are still punting the 'no deposit or 19% low-rate finance deal' on Premium 420s,The deal is hidden away in the small print on just a few adverts, but it is available.

No other manufacturer is pushing any low-rate deals at the moment but one approved Scania used truck dealer is; RO-Truck based in Kent. It is offering 1.9% as well, and is highlighting weekly payments as an appetiser for fleet-spec four and five-year-old 6x2 Scanias.

The basis of the deal is a 25% deposit and 48 monthly payrnents.With the deposit paid,i74 a week would get you a five-year-old Scania R114 6x2 380 with sleeper cab.

MAN Diesel is still pushing three-year-old fleet German or ERF tractors with a repair and maintenance package for £231 (ex-VAT) per week, while ERF Encore is pushing five-yearold ex-lease 6x2 EC11.38MT midlifts with Cummins engines for as little as £79 per week on lease over three years.

But like the man says, hurry while stocks last...
