And after two years you're back on foot with this deal, whilst you'd still have a car with the Dacia deal.

I have an Audi A4 1.4 Tfsi Avante on same deal as this. I went to my local Audi Dealership who matched the deal and also saved me the £240 administration fee. Delivery was 7 days as well. Which beat the 3 months from the online company was offering at the time.

Well, yes of course.
150bhp, 0-60 in 8.7s.
So, good effort on the downer, but take a look first!

They have to adhere to BVRLA guidelines regarding fair wear and tear.
I've leased since 1999 and only had one issue where I argued my point and a satisfactory conclusion was obtained.

There is a booklet provided by and agreed by the lease companies of what is acceptable. Includes size of scratches etc so you know exactly.
I have never had any issues but then I do look after the vehicle

A question please. I've always bought my cars outright but it does seem good economics to lease. I never have credit agreements have never been in debt not even on credit cards, so does this cancel me out from getting a lease deal like this?

Shouldn't do. As long as you have credit cards and bank accounts you will have a credit hiostory, as long as its reasonable you should get the credit.

Which audi dealer is it you went to? i know its been a few months but maybe they'll be able to still match this offer or even get close lol.

With regards to returning the car at the end, is it down to the customer to arrange that? With this company being in Birmingham, that's a long way away for me! Or do they organise a transporter pickup?

Most will deliver and collect as part of the service. At least, that's my experience.

It will go straight to auction, they don't care where you are based.

Extremely attractive deal - thanks for posting OP. My lease is up in June...tempted...but don't think the lead times will allow to push back that far just yet.
Also, the 1.4T is a pretty pokey engine (150bhp) so is in standard power terms, comparable to the base 2.0 TDI that a lot of the deals have. Less torque, of course, but still reasonably efficient - our A3 is more than capable of 50mpg as a daily driver with the same engine.
Thumbs up from me.

Much better than the dacia deal.
can actually drive around in comfort and not look like an idiot who wasted 6k on the lowest spec car on the market made in romania on the chasis of an old clio!

Got a great deal in feb via select car leasing. Decent car, a bit slow but it is what it is. Ferries the kids about!
rohitrd
16 Dec 16#14
It is a nice car which I had been using for commute and travels for last 8 months in a similar deal. I use the 10K allowance and more - so a good reliable car is all I ask for!

thats assuming the dacia lasts 2 years!
Ive gotten through my fair share of cars,
BMWs great when working but once you get one problem rid of it asap.
AUDIs when you get 1 problem, you're poor for a while but itll be fixed and you wont get another for a while.
Renault, when they have 1 problem, you might as well scrap it, as they're just going to keep on coming.
Peugeot, dont even go there.
citreon, not actually that bad assuming you know a little bit about cars to fix minor problems every so often.
volkswagen, same as audi
land rovers/rangerovers steer clear!
volvo, probably the most solid well built car brand ive ever owned and used. just abit bland on the interior

You can get this deal directly with Audi and you won't have to pay the arrangement fee, I got mine in Feb from Guildford audi, £956 down and £183 a month. Give them a call.

1.4? does that engine have enough power to actually move the vehicle?

Considering an F1 car is 1.6L, Not sure if statements like that hold true in this day and age.

Again, this is ideal conditions, there is not a chance, this can ever do 0-60 in 8.7s and where is the BHP taken, hmmmm? :man:

I've got one of these through a dealer on a 3+23 at £222 month, I've just checked and they are now quoting 244 for same deal so this is a better deal than that.
As for the car I really like it, loads of gadgets and CarPlay is a must for me in future. Engine is really good for the size of it and gets me mid 40s on my commute, mixture of A roads and dual carraigeway, can get 50+ on a run.
Only downside is the audio system is a bit crap, all sound seems to come from front centre speaker and the quality isn't brilliant
lovelybeer
16 Dec 161#27
Then use that argument on all cars with quoted figures.
I think people are really missing the point...
Anyhow - spoke to them about these - short lead times, as need registering in the next few weeks; Audi directly are quoting me as well, as they are attempting to match, less the arrangement fee (common for Audi) and have other colours available than Black/White standard.

You missed the 'in my not very humble opinion' bit on the end!
If all you're interested in is reliability and don't care about the driving experience then it has to be a bland Toyota or a weird Honda.

I have a new 1.4T auto s-line A3 and it easily does 0-60 in 8 seconds. My daughter has a 1997 1.2 Corsa which does 0-60 in a week. I know ones a turbo and ones a slightly smaller engine but these petrol Engines have vastly improved. My father laughed when I said I was geting a 1.4 petrol but ate his words when I took him out in it !

Probably a good place to start if you want to wind up Audi owners. Imagine.
This seems like a great deal. I'm paying 247 a month over 36 months for a 1.6tdi sportback A3 sport. And I thought that was a cracking deal at 15k miles a year.
The new interior and toys are nice on the audis, the A3 has dynamic suspension that can be adjusted from the central control unit. I presume this has the same

This is far off the deal that was about in February but a deal now. I got one on the Feb deal and if anyone has any serious questions about the car please pm me. The deal I had was £995 ish down and £165 per month with maintenance. Also worth noting that Vw finance had increased the penalty for going over mileage since I ordered mine. Worth checking if you plan on exceeding the miles

As mentioned this car has been cheaper previously. However, that was then and this is now.
The 1.4 engine may not appeal to all but £6k for 2 years motoring in a brand new Audi is good value.
My understanding is that this time of year generally sees the decent lease deals dry up. I'm hoping that we see some of the recent VAG deals reappear come spring, however a weaker sterling will probably have an impact.

Does anyone know if you can do these deals without paying the arrangement fee? Obviously the dealership but the deals aren't as good. Tempted by this one though.

Have a 2.0 litre diesel A3 with 150bhp at present. Had a loaner with 1.4 petrol 150 BHP last week and the engine was very impressive. Quick and nimble. I was expecting it to be a bit of a slug

I paid £450 for a 1999 Audi A3 1.8t 3 years ago. Still got it now, only money I have paid out over 3 years is £390. Save yourself some money and buy second hand :sunglasses:

Services on personal contract hires, do they have to be done by audi or can any independent do it? is it contract that service needs to be done by audi?

I had the nissan qashqai deal off here where u only paid £400 upfront processing fee then £238 for 24 months (20k per year mileage)..the cars broke down after constantly having a battery problem and nissan repairing it constantly..the lease company have agreed to end the lease after 1 year early as even they can't resolve the issue.
I'm looking for another lease now on something nice or a convertible within the next month (as thats when the lease company want this car back) best deals ive found so far are on mazda mx5 which am not keep on as the roof has a latch and is softtop and audi a3 but again soft top..i'd go for a saloon non convertible like this audi if the price is right..can anyone recommend or help? Do the dealers like audi really match these kind of lease deals?
