The factory that was building my ordered car has closed. Where do I stand with the dealer?
I ordered a new Volvo XC40, which was due to be built on 4 April and delivered to the dealer around 16 April. The factory in Belgium were it is being built is closed, so how do I stand with regards to the agreement with the supplying dealer? I am concerned that the price we agreed for the part exchange will not be valid.

Email the dealer and ask for clarification for vehicle delivery (many salesroom staff continue to work from home). The trade-in value shouldn't be affected. It might even improve, with used values set to increase as new car stocks becomes harder to find: www.honestjohn.co.uk/news/coronavirus/2020-03/coro...n
