You also get insurance for the full price of the item if anything goes wrong thanks to section 75 of the consumer credit act, whenever I get a new car I pay the deposit on a credit card, often to the dealers chagrin but if they object too strongly I go elsewhere as the full cost is covered, providing its between £100- £30000 iirc
