1.4 TSI Match Edition Golf(125 HP)

- Winter Pack (Winter pack incl. heated front seats and headlight washers)
- Solid paint
0-60mph 9.3 secs
Deal from freedomcontracts, couldnt find a better deal on a golf lease, and this seems a lot cheaper than comparable alternatives (Seat leon, Skoda Octavia, etc)
Perfect for those with ultra low mileage (I commute 15 miles a day)

The upfront cost on these lease deals always kill it for me....if I had 2 1/2 grand to spare i probably wouldn't need to lease!

Good price for a nice VAG with the comfort of knowing you'll be the first inside it.

No more reliable than most cars - don't believe the myth and advertising

Decent deal for a golf! I like the monthlies but not the initial sadly! Also 8k miles would be better than 5k. Nice find though. :wink:

Looks good this. Although I'm always curious about lease deals what happens if your vehicle gets scratches and chips over the 2 year period when you hand it back?

Same as a PCP hand back. You have guid lines for fair wear and tear
this gives a rough idea. but will change depending on manufacture/lease company
Freedom are members of the BVRLA and must subscribe to their guidelines as to "fair wear and tear" - bumper scrapes, small scratches etc are fine, windscreen chips that would fail an MOT and scratches more than 20mm (I think) are not

Including extra fees this works out at about £200 per month. Don't forget to include gap insurance too. £4.5k to drive a golf for 2 years?

What would you recommend as an alternative in the same price range?

A new car buyer might well put down £4.5K or so as a deposit, and the car would burn far more than that in two years of depreciation, so this makes a good economic alternative.
Another way to look at it is £200 per month for a car that allows 400 miles on average per month of use. 50p per mile excluding fuel cost.

Do you need to be employed to get a lease deal? Only ask as I have enough cash to cover the full cost a few times over but think I might get rejected if I don't have a job.

You may fail a credit test.

They ask for household income, employers address and length of service etc and they do a credit check, so I assume so.

gap insurance is not mandatory.

Agreed. However through the likes iof Car2cover its not too painful.

Its only suitable for people doing 5000 miles a year.
