Ford hikes car prices

Jul 1 2009
If you thought that repaying your car loan on your existing Ford car is expensive, you are in for a surprise. Ford has increased the price of its most expensive model by over a thousand pounds. This means that you have to pay extra interest on the car loan that you take. Also your monthly repayment amount on your car loan is bound to increase. The main reason for changed prices of Ford cars and subsequent changes in your car loan payment is due to a weakening of the pound against the Euro. The exchange rate of the pound has gone from a high of 1.43 Euro to 1.16 Euro. This has resulted in a loss to the company as Ford incurs most of its costs in Euros.
Potential car owners who intend on getting a car loan to purchase a new Ford car have to deal with higher car prices and higher interest repayments. Even though the government has brought about changes that will help reduce car loan interest rates, spending £600-700 to get a Fiesta or Ka could prove to be expensive. You can reduce your interest repayments on your car loan taken by selecting a car loan lender that offers the lowest interest on car loans. At times the car loan division of Ford may offer you a low interest rate.
