Actually the maths are all wrong here....
This deal is 24 months but the upfront payment is the first month's payment in effect.
So the figures need to be calculated as 23 months @ monthly rate plus the upfront plus the admin fee.
So the OPs figures are actually £1151.72 + (23x£95.98) + (£199+VAT) / 24 = £149.92 per month
For those who don't have the £1151.72 upfront, there is an option to reduce to £395.94 upfront, which only works out to be £3/month more than this deal overall:

A friend of mine has this car and the mpg figures are disappointingly nearer 50 than late 70s :-(

Nothing does late 70s, regardless of what brochures say.

Same with any very recent car - expect 75% of listed combined mpg for petrol and 70% for diesel in the winter (diesels take twice as long to fully warm up and be their best) if driven on a 10/15 mile journey without driving it like a nun. Stop start usage on the test cycle massively skews the mpg as the test cycle sees the car at a standstill for 24% of the time.
My wife has an "80mpg" Audi A1 1.6TDI, with very similar output (116ps on the Audi, 110ps on the Hyundai) and it does 55mpg consistently. If we were willing to drive it at 60mph everywhere on 100 mile journeys, we might get up to 75mpg. Best had was early 60s.

i concur, nice motor, more economical than my 745Li but no where near 78mpg but then with today's efficiency ratings racket I never expected it to be over 70mpg, was hoping for 65mpg lime as my old C3 1.4hdi from 2003 regularly gave 64mpg on the same route.

Maybe he should have asked for a 'personal mpg quote' based on exactly how and where and when he drives then? Surely they must have an algorithm to predict that for every driver, every tankful by now?
All this false outrage over 'official' mpg figures. They are comparison figures based on all vehicles going through the same test. A little hint here for the hard of understanding: YOUR CAR WILL NOT ACHIEVE THE OFFICIAL FIGURES.
I'd say 50mpg from a car of this size and type is pretty good. Would have been nearer 30 not many years ago and the emissions would have been a multiple of what they are these days.

Taking mine back to Hyundai as the ABS is dangerous. F*cking thing sometimes just doesn't stop.

Then drive it through the dealerships front window jump out and say "I told you the brakes were no good", you might make the news!

Cold as it's a diesel.
Take a look at the biggest polluting vehicle type for your town or city on your local authority Web site and you'll find diesel cars way ahead in terms of nitrogen dioxide and particulate emissions.Leading to some towns and cities exceeding WHO safe levels for air quality on a regular basis. In the long run these emissions are harming young and old.
Please look at the facts before leasing or buying another diesel.

NOx is a problem in choked cities, not so much of a problem elsewhere - it disperses quickly. Modern diesels with a DPF put out fewer particulates than very modern direct injection petrol engines (these petrol cars are working more like diesels). Those petrol particulates are smaller, disperse further and are more easily inhaled than the diesel ones. By all means get the pre-DPF diesels off the road. Petrol cars are naturally low on NOx (the lower temps and pressures required for combustion don't support copious NOx generation), but they are by no means that "clean". Benzene used as an anti-knock agent is one of the worst carcinogens you can come across.
I swapped a diesel for a petrol and the exhaust tips are filthy with carbon residue, the diesel's ones never were.

The "facts" are that both petrol and diesel are polluting and degrade our health and quality of life. Which is worse is related to the mode of use and still open to debate.

Buses, taxis and trains are far more of a problem than current diesel cars. Besides, Gordon Brown said we all should drive diesels.
