Will pass on the details for this lease deal to the couple down the road who have 5 kids and currently use a Ford Fiesta mk4 to transport their 'little ones'.

Now if it were the e-nv200 then you would be talking....

Not as ugly as a BMW 1 series though!

YOUR time and YOUR hassle. I know it's covered by a warranty, but it's a ballache nevertheless...

i wouldnt have thought so since there is a manufacturers warranty with it being a brand new car. i doubt Audi wants the second hand market for its cars to drop if they are giving people the wrong information with regards to servicing.

Now, emissions on the other hand is a different story :smiley:

After initially being quoted this price by Arbury Nissan, I have now had an email telling me that the price is over £300 per month - an increase of over 140% on the initial price quoted. Very annoyed at having my time wasted by these chumps :disappointed:

What, no sense of humour, Sir Charles? Probably had a brain bypass!

Is this deal still available? Link doesn't work

It would have cost you time and hassle should it have blown in your face, no?

Link does not seem to work? Can anyone help?

By keeping distance?

not really as that is what was told to me by Audi. It was 24 months or 20'000 miles for the service. I had it as a company car so it made no difference to me if i had it serviced or not as it didnt cost me.

Very little boot space with 7 seats in place. Better off with Citroen Dispatch Combi, 9 seat version is best car I've ever had. Suddenly going on holiday is so easy.

Yes, just highlighting add not in the OP, so you'll only need 1 year's worth.

Check his post history and then come back and apologise to me

More fool you then. I wouldn't ever not do a service for such a long time: it ruins the engines as is happening alarmingly frequently on BMWs and MINIs.

i had an audi a6 for 24 months without needing to service it.

On the other hand, you'd need to factor in the cost of a towbar and trailer to fit in your presumptuous assumptions, eh?

Two year deal...

Never underestimate stupidity

I wonder if you could fit all the chips on your shoulder into the back of one.

I doubt it.

I bought a 10yo volvo v40 with full main dealer service was a good as gold, ran it for a year it worked out at £210pm with depreciation (about £200!) I now run a brand new lease for £230. No worries of big bills, tyres or breaking down. I'd love to see where you think £15k of savings is coming from? ​

Do the back seats go.flat? Might want to fling a mattress in there for summer tourism

Probably benefits tourism - you could get a Romanian family living in it.

Not bad for a cheap 7 seater. Depending on cost for going over mileage you could run a cheap airport taxi service with one of these.

And whenever you are out and about always leave someone sat in it so they catch anyone who bumps it in a car park and make them pay for the damage. You also need to sit someone on the bonnet when driving, to catch any wayward stones.

Apologies for jacking this thread, can I ask which year of model you're referring to please?

You can't. You take their insurance details.

No problemo! Don't be put off by moon and back mileages - they have the same engine and box that Merc taxi drivers take to half a million miles.

Gorgeous looking things.

I've always been more bothered about practicality and economy over looks...I I would never had considered this car before your point, thank you! :smiley:

I will be looking for 7-seater next month, but this deal looks not bad (despite the fact that a car looks ugly to my taste:)

"I believe i understand more than you..."

Nope, still waiting.

Why does every anti-lease person assume those who are for leasing only want to because it's a new car that makes them feel good about themselves? I haven't leased, but considering it because of the fixed costs and wanting/needing only 1 car between my wife and I with a load of kids, something reliable covered by decent warranty is mercenary and becoming more so with job and family circumstances. Being a new car, in itself, isn't important.

Oh, surely most of us are prepared to/have to work until 60+ these days anyway?

All the Taxi drivers will be swooping on these :wink:

Not as ugly as a BMW 1 series though!

small print :smiley: "Please note that NV200 Combi is a passenger car for registration and taxation."

50 mph single, 60 dual!

1st year road fund licence included, I believe?

Rodius is definitely a munter, but is unbelievably cheap to buy and run, has bulletproof (although previous generation) Merc drivetrain, and is more flexible than any six/seven seater before or since (infinitely configurable interior, even 'conference' seating). Besides, when you're driving it, you can't SEE how soddin' ugly it is :wink:

Absolutely senseless.. but good for you as per your circumstances

Until in one year at 6 years old you need a new clutch and dmf and a new turbo and dpf - sure if you do lots of long trips you don't get those problems but if 98% of your mileage is in town on trips of about 2 miles form cold then it happen unless you take the fuel consumption hit of driving a petrol which again makes it expensive.

We used to laugh at those who bought new or leased until this happened and we realised the maths can work both ways.

I understand way more than you think. We own a car and also lease one. Why because of done wisely the cost of ownership is the same.

We bought a Ford Focus from new and kept it 10 years. Factoring in repair costs, servicing and VED, depreciation and other costs. It worked out at about £200 per month.
My current leased Focus of a higher spec, costs £210pm all in. Better fuel economy, cheaper insurance and service included.
So tell me how that isn't a wise way to drive a car?

My wife's car is owned. Our Civic lost more in depreciation than our new car cost new. M

We like to and can afford new cars, without finance. Leasing makes more sense in swine ways for us.

I believe i understand more than you...

Let me give you all the short version:

Leasing = good for small businesses. Easier paperwork and a tax benefit.
Buying = good for the regular Joe.

If you feel compelled to lease a car to "feel good" about yourself, then you have some other real serious issues you need to face. If you are this sort of person, more likely than not, you are making other poor financial decisions in your life.

For a smart person who buys a decent car that lasts 10 years or more AFTER paying it off, that's anywhere from £10 to 15k of savings. For a clown who leases and do not own a business, be prepared to work until you are 60+ years old if this is you.

Wot, no complaints about leasing a new vehicle, from those that think everyone should be like them and only buy old/second hand cars?

Rubbish lease deals.... COLD

hot

excellent price for a shoebox on wheels

What about other drivers not being careful?
How do you flawlessly avoid that?

LOL

Just become an Uber driver then you'll get paid to drive this abomination.

Becareful on handing it back you will have to pay for all dents and damage

works out to £277 a month

Now if this was a Ferrari for the same price you would be talking!

Its 18,000 or 12 months whichever comes first.

When comes to servicing I believe the general recommended intervals with all manufacturers are at the mileage or 12 months whichever is sooner, which in this case would be 12 months.
On the face of it, looks like a good deal. Heat added.

Nissan even! The Fiat is even uglier but the SSangyong Rodius is definately the worst of the lot!

Why didn't you ask that then - you said 'reg'?

That is the ugliest thing I have ever seen.

Hehe ... smooth move.. have an upvote. Wait, this isn't reddit Have a like anyways :laughing:

​I'm here if you need help proving who I am? :man:

I am just about to hand back my company car and am needing a personal lease. Does anyone know what other costs I need to factor in - do I need to pay for servicing and my own insurance? Also what are the usual costs if you exceed the 8,000 miles per annum?

Looks like a good deal by the way - heat added :laughing:

I know it's brand new I was talking about whether it's 2014 or 2015...

What year is it, I can't seem to find the reg/year

your correct 18000 or 12 months interval.

Have you gone for the deal? Is that what the lease paperwork says?

I'd get that in writing before taking up the lease.

the lease company is a nissan dealer and the nissan manual says 18000 so should not be a problem.

The lease company won't take too kindly to no service in 24 mths...

Does anyone know on a 24 month contract whether you need to do 2 services or just 1?

This is for a business hire isn't it? Anyone know of any good personal deals?

what tax and ins group?

Looks a good deal if you need to move 7 cheaply

Now if it were the e-nv200 then you would be talking....
