I recently VT'd my wife's mk7 1.6. BCA collected the car and gave it an A grade, so no issues with it.
The car was on a 4 year PCP with 12k pa as part of the agreement, so 48k overall. The car was handed back with 45k on the clock, with approx 7 months left on the PCP.
I've just had a letter through from VWFS saying there's an excess mileage charge of £190 plus VAT?! Says it needs paying in 14 days.
I'm guessing they're trying it on, but I'm still confused. What should I do? Ignore it? Contact them to tell them to sod off? Contact them to get it cleared?
I've done some looking online. Some think as there was a VT, there's no longer a contract, ergo, no longer responsible for anything. I also saw some say that VW introduced mileage charges in March this year - but I was never contacted about it, so surely they can't enforce new contract terms?
Help!
