Do they take the car away from you straight away or can you drive it till your new car arrives for pick up?
Few ways around it...

I enquired about trading in (not for the 86 btw) about a month ago and because the delivery times are so long on that car (enquired in March expect August Delivery), they will do all the numbers now and should you choose to keep your current car until such time they re-evaluate then.... now I wasn't too comfortable with that kind of openness (particularly given the possible gap)

The other is you do the deal, then they write you a cheque for your car and you hand it over then... get yourself a beater for the interim (we actually done this in anticipation of our 86)
