When deciding which optional extras to tick, bear in mind that the best deal new Ford isn't necessarily the model with lots of extras (despite what many new Ford dealers try to tell you). The fact is that most new Fords lose money faster on the optional extras than on the Ford itself - so the extras you choose (even at the new Ford best price) doesn't necessarily offer the best value. When it comes to ex-demo Fords or ready-built showroom new Fords for sale at a main dealer, the specification has already been fixed and cannot be changed; so if you need a new Ford from stock, be spec-flexible. New Ford dealers tend to pre order stock they can sell easily - typically Silver, Grey or Black Fords with few or no options at all. The best discount new Fords are normally specified like that - ie popular colours with few options. Car finance is another consideration when choosing to pay extra for optional equipment. If you buy a new Ford on the best PCP deal or Ford leasing / contract hire package you can find, the options may ruin your saving; this is because handing the Ford back at the end loses the FULL value of the extra equipment you paid for. To avoid this potential loss, you have three possibilities: 1) select a higher Ford trim level ie Sport over an S; 2) don't order expensive options; 3) buy your new Ford on HP or with a personal loan (where you always own the Ford and the optional extras).
