what does it mean when they say 20% residual amount is R20 000?

A residual amount has nothing to do with a car insurance policy, we will however try and answer your question to the best of our knowledge.

A residual deal refers to a finance agreement that includes a balloon payment, or residual value, which you must pay at the end of the finance term. The residual value can be relatively large compared with your monthly instalments.

When the finance term ends, you have two options: you can either sell the car and hope that the selling price will be enough to cover the residual value, or you can ask the bank to grant you further finance for the residual amount.

Hope that helps …
