My sales guy said not to worry about it, and the car will be ready on Wednesday. It's amazing - despite it being a novated lease, they've asked for a finance deposit, without the third party (my employer) knowing at all.

I flatly refused to give the deposit, and told them to put everything through on Monday. I nearly ended up hanging up on the Finance Manager when i was speaking to him later in the day on the phone.

Not a good way to treat a new customer! Anyway, the car will be ready Wednesday, but Saturday will be delivery date as i work 8.30am-5.30pm....
that is pretty rough - having had 3 novated leases previously I had never been asked for any deposit for any of them.
