You get to keep it AND they give you a new one.

I'll go out and get whatever car I want and I generally don't care what some random stranger will think. If you're the sort of person that judges people on what car they drive, that probably says more about you than it says about them.

Its not a stupid question at all, yes you give it back to the the lease company :smile:

Take out finance, get 2k discount, pay off finance within 14 day cooling off period. Result - CASH price!

Very tempted in this deal and new to leasing, just got below quote for initial rental + 23, solid white and no extra's delivery SEP/OCT Driver maintained quote

Initial rental £1,908.94 incl vat
Monthly rental £190.60 incl vat
Admin fee £180

Total £6,472.74

Excess mileage 8.37ppm

Not sure why the price has gone up.

Not very smooth on my 2016 VW Passat.

It's definitely better. I have no gripes about mine. It's just a smooth transition

I had hill hold on my 1994 Subaru, didn't know I had it until sometime in and it was fantastic, worked with the manual handbrake back then too - never needed to use it.

Modern cars with electric handbrakes never seemed to pull off the handbrake smoothly - is this better now or just better after you get used to working with it?

My quote on that came in at around £6750. It was around £500 more over the course of the lease. As I stated above, I went for 6+23 as it made basically no difference to the overall cost but reduced the upfront hit somewhat.

What did they quote you for that?

ordered mine went for the white S Line on 3+23

Just ordered mine. Went for 6+23 as it was only £7 more over the lease period.

I asked my local Audi dealer for a quote on Friday and showed them what they needed to beat (or get close to). They couldn't get anywhere near it. After it went off to the manager the best they finally came back with was about £25pm more

That's what GAP insurance is for - http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/car-insurance/gap-insurance#pro

Can I ask a question for those who have leased before?

I understand that it needs to be handed back in good nick, but what would happen if 18 months into this and the car was written off in an accident.

Insurers would pay their perceived Market Value, but what happens to the lease, how much do you pay to the Lease company, etc etc

Do you think there is any chance an Audi dealership would match this deal? Has anyone tried to see what they say?

I sent a Tiguan back at the end of a lease a few months ago and it had a noticeable scratch but they only charged me £21 as they are governed by set rules
It was cheaper than shopping around for it to be touched up
On my 3rd lease now and don't think I'd buy again with prices as good as these

Admit it. You don't get leasing do you? :smiley:

They've confirmed that road tax is included

Only you can decide which suits your needs best, but if I were choosing I'd go for the Golf GTi. The Audi may be a slightly nicer place to sit, but the Golf will be more fun to drive. You'll also get more equipment as standard with the Golf.

Yeah guess have to go drive an Audi A4 and see how it is. Have to see tho at night the Audi looks freaking awesome with all the LED lights etc

Don't worry too much, every Audi interior is a cockpit :smiley:

Touchy :smiley:

I think what everyone is trying to say is that she may be paying more than £190, but unlikely to be paying more than £260.

Best way go to a dealer and try both, I always test drive before I lease. Personally I would go with the golf, although the engine in the Audi is ok (I have it in a polo ) the difference will be night and day.
I looked at the golf and really liked it, although ended up with a Leon cupra 290 on an astounding deal. Would definitely consider a golf next time if the right deal came up

You don't need to get gap insurance for any lease but it's good to have incase car gets written off as it would cover any shortfalls.

Also with these kind of cars I would get it as it's high demand for peopke to steal.

HELP ME DECIDE PLEASE .....

I managed to secure a Golf GTI deal that was on awhile back and now my wife and I ate thinking about this deal as we never had an Audi before.

So here are the details for the Golf GTI

8000 Per annum ( 8k is enough for me )
DSG AUTO
Pure White ( £250 price Inc in total )

23+6 Term ( September delivery )

£1315 Initial
£219 monthly

= £6352
( no admin fees as getting from dealer )

A few things that's putting me off the Audi is the DSG Auto , Virtual Cockpit and Flatbottom Steering Wheel. Which I would have to pay extra for. Whereas I would get them in the GTI ......... Also the Engine would be a massive difference compared to GTI don't you think ???

HELP Me Decide Please .

Would I need gap insurance for this because it's cheaper than the last deal?

https://www.google.es/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=http://www.drive-electric.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Fair_Wear_Tear.pdf&ved=0ahUKEwiWxPvDhtDUAhUGAxoKHbLZCUUQFgggMAI&usg=AFQjCNGu5Qn6gIcqe1uR8r-jQbBhjn9H5w
This is the bvrla guide that tells you what is acceptable when returning a lease car

Normally included in a lease deal but check first

what's the car tax amount?

she must be lying then.

Another stupid question.. What do they charge you for any small scrapes, kerbed wheels etc.

Had one service on my Golf on a 2 year lease, needed doing at 13 months and 18k when service indicator came on. When I handed it back at 30k it was 1 month off a service. Depends how you drive though as to when the computer tells you it needs a service. Hope that helps

Sharp drop off you say? Pure speculation.....

on the exact second, when the 2 year lease is up, the car self detonates.

Will need to factor in servicing for the vehicle also which likely will be 2 services.

I assume at an Audi approved garage will set you back about £200 a time. So potentially makes this £278/279 per month over the term. Still seems like a good deal though.

On a side note does anyone have experience of getting away with just 1 service stamp on a 2 year lease?

If you really want a hot deal buy used always gonna be cheaper. My current car BMW 320i 2009 was bought for £10,000 4 years ago with only 12000 miles on the clock. It's now done 60000 miles and is still worth 5K so 5K depreciation over 48 months about £105 per month.

I had a different experience last December, when I handed my Golf match tdi back I was inundated with emails to purchase. BCA were on me a month before I handed it back. It was a great deal as well, for a mint 2 yr old car with 29k they wanted 9450 (car list was just short of 20k)
Just to add I have the tsi engine in a 2014 polo, very nippy engine but needs working and is not particularly economical.I know it's not the exactly same but they all seem to suffer from oil consumption and sound like a bag of spanners when you start them up which worried me at the start!

If only you were available to explain this to an idiot like me :disappointed:

I have this exact engine in my 2016 A4 Avant - to date its used one litre of oil (which came with the car) in 12k miles. Its now showing its due a oil service.

Ive been very impressed with this car, so muchj so im considering buying a new S4 in October so it arrives when this lease runs out.

Jealous much?

I have one - its a great car!!

Dont let the small minded put you off.

Why would they?

This is a truly awful engine. I had one brand new and it drank oil.
I took it back to VW and was told it was tough and "in spec". There is info all over the web on these engines so please read up.
Mine was one of the modified ones and it still burned oil. Was putting a small bottle in every 6 weeks. I wouldn't go near personally.. shame as car is really nice apart from that.

I'll go out and get whatever car I want and I generally don't care what some random stranger will think. If you're the sort of person that judges people on what car they drive, that probably says more about you than it says about them.

So people who drive new cars for an affordable monthly fee and get a new one every 2 years are tw*ts? Personally, I am happy that I am leasing a car especially as I won't be exposed to the sharp drop off in diesel car prices, guess that makes me a lucky tw*t!

infact you are able to buy the car at end of the term. Only stipulation is that it has to be someone other then the named leaser, so your family member is sufficient.

It depends, each model and manufacturer are different. Leases direct from the manufacturers (Audi in this case) are ordered and built to spec. I ordered my A4 on 30th Dec 2016 and it arrived at the dealer on 16th April 2017. 3rd party lease companies may have cars in stock and can be done and dusted in as little as 1-2 weeks. Another car I considered was the Seat Ateca, it was a factory order and they quoted the lead time as 8 weeks, for example

You have to give it back. BUT!!!... for 2 whole years you will imagine that people will be looking at you and thinking; "wow- he's really cool!". When in actual fact, people will be look at you thinking "tw*t".

Unfortunately, as others have mentioned, there is no option to buy- cars from BMW, VW and Mercedes go straight to auction at the end of the term.

For this reason, my wife bought the A3 version of this and it really has quite a bit of power even compared to my 2l TDI (also a lot less weight). Using cruise control on the 50 mph sections of the M3, the mileage can go well above 100 mpg when it is just using the 2 cylinders.

Should match my white BMW that I line up outside my overly priced house compared to the build quality and the neighbours.

But you are still effectively spending the exact same amount of money.

Never had a lease deal, what's the 'general' turn around from ordering to receiving on something like this?

I pay £470pm on PCP for my A4 S Line 2.0TDI (with a few extras and based on higher mileage) - this is storming deal imo, and now I feel totally sick

Keep in mind the initial rental, I doubt she paid anything near that for her fiesta.

If she did then they saw her coming!

Good deal. Just gutted about the mileage of all these deals. I have a stupid 64 mile round trip to work :disappointed:

Patience.. some people only come on here to cold vote everything in site :smiley:

I'm thinking of this one and just pay the extra miles?

https://www.centralukvehicleleasing.co.uk/vehicle/choose_your_lease/80186/audi/a4/14t_fsi_s_line_4dr_s_tronic_leatheralc.html

Yeah I'm still waiting on an automatic.. black edition S Tronic is more like £7900.. needs to get closer!

I have one of these on a two year lease. Mine is the 1.4TFSI A4 Avant Sport in white. I pay £242 p/m and my initial payment was 3 months advance.

The car itself it brilliant! Sat nav standard, 10 speaker sound system with subwoofer under the rear seat, parking sensors front and rear, electric tailgate etc etc.... also this car has the comfort suspension not the rock hard sports (S Line) suspension. The car itself is so so quiet. Obviously this is helped by the petrol engine, but when the car is on the move the cabin is eerily quiet.

As someone else mentioned the engine is more suited to the A3 but is perfectly acceptable in the A4. It still gets up to speed reasonably well and can be remarkably economical when wanted. My commute to work is 11 miles each way, normally when not in a rush I just drop myself behind a lorry doing 56mph stick the cruise control on. I achieve (according to the computer) between 57.4-60.1mpg, which for a heavy petrol car is not too shabby. I get 400-500 miles between fill ups. My previous car was a Mk7 Golf GTD, it had the same size fuel tank as my A4, yet I only averaged 420-440 miles per tank in that.

Overall I'm very impressed with the car. My only two gripes are 1) the offset pedals - the clutch pedal is roughly in line with the steering wheel. 2) although it has an electronic parking brake, I had to pay £50 extra for the hill hold and auto handbrake feature.

They certainly do, check their own website.

ive been told its a factory order with delivery around September

looking at september

Voted hot. Thanks OP. I have emailed for a formal quote, still waiting to hear back. Does anyone know what the lead time is?

I prefer a higher upfront and smaller monthlies so that things like remortgaging to better mortgage deals isn't impacted to the same extent.

their :wink:

No, not at all. I just dislike having to pay big chunks of money out for the purpose of driving a car. I'd rather just pay a higher monthly fee and keep my thousands of pounds in the bank for things that actually matter. :smiley:

Cars are great. They're like trains, but instead of on a track, you can go wherever. But you need to put a liquid called "Petrol" in a car, instead of getting a train ticket to make it move. Hope this helps someone.

Take out finance, get 2k discount, pay off finance within 14 day cooling off period. Result - CASH price!

cracking deal

You could, but you wouldn't get this model due to BIK being mainly aligned against emissions. You'd likely be cheaper paying the VAT on a personal lease or getting a vehicle in a lower emissions category such as a hybrid.

that's what business lease is for

Could you get this through a company if you're a consultant who needs to travel and claim vat back?

I didn't think Audi did a 1.4 slime
the picture shows a car in sport trim

Would be better if was the A4 Saloon 1.4 TFSI 150ps S Line [S tronic] (aka Automatic).

It's not a deposit as such - the car is actually £260 per month, rather than the stated £190, you just pay a chunk of it in advance. If you'd rather not pay the 'deposit', but £260 per month instead, then I'm sure the leasing company will be able to offer that option.

I'm going to assume that you want to pay no deposit and £190 per month, that's not going to happen.

sometimes it can be found in a lucky bag

The lease does not include insurance. You buy that separately from an insurance company.

2k discount only if you take out finance. hardly a CASH price

It should not be considered as a deposit.

Sorry if it's been answered above, but does the lease fee cover insurance? If not does the leasing company provide insurance cheaper than regular insurers?

and whats their price

You enquired about buying, drive the deal are sales.

Car Wow - Coventry Audi usually comes out best.

i haven't no. they doing better lease deal?

Tried Drive The Deal?

Their :wink:

so how are they great then??

even better walk????

These deals are great but I just don't like the deposit which is basically just thrown away as you'll never see it again.

just buy a used car

for those wishing to buy could you possibly post where to get a 6k discount?

no one saying you cant get a discount on a GENUINE list price

good deal imo.
i jumped on the previous se model deal with the same engine last year.

Why is it that all lease deals quote the "list price"? This ain't a 30k car... it took 30 seconds of searching to make this a 24k car.

Still seems like a reasonable lease deal, but let's not pretend that anyone buying is getting no discounts.

Insurance differs greatly depending on all sorts of criteria, so best to use a comparison site for your own circumstances.

Cars less than 3 years old don't require an MOT, so not a factor with this deal. You will need to fork out extra for servicing and tyres though unless you take out a maintenance package.

Run it through a comparison website - your address will have a factor on the price.


No MOTs. but it would need one minor service.

A silly Qs : I understand the insurance is not included, so what would be typical insurance for someone who has 6-7 months old DL and age is 33. Also - is there any other charge like maintenance or MOT for 1st 2 years?

Good little engine, but a bit underpowered for the A4. Suits the A3 better. But still a great deal :smiley:

This 1.4 petrol turbo has the same horsepower as a 2 litre diesel. It'll be plenty quick enough for many.

Your 5k deal totals £6,305.77 ((£2,400 + 23 x £161.99) + £180). You'd be better off with this deal, even only using 6k miles per year, no?

1.4 engine is why it's cheap.

I do 6k a year, on mobile so can't see ppm. Theres some good prices on other cars too.

Half the mileage though.

10k option is £390+/mth with a £2k deposit!

Edit

Might be cheaper here

https://www.centralukvehicleleasing.co.uk/vehicle/choose_your_lease/80184/audi/a4/14t_fsi_s_line_4dr_leatheralc.html

£6125

The auto not a huge amount more either.

I thought it was just a standard family car? Can't imagine a well informed poser buying this car....

All the BMW drivers are buying these now.Its just a posers Skoda really

Congratulations. The website has a slightly different price, hence.

was for me that's why I ordered it. Cant wait till september to ENJOY IT

Yeh - fortunately it's the correct one for this deal.

some price eh.,knocks spots off the other posts on this car by about £400.

99% of lease deals don't require huge up front rentals in advance. They simply do that to make the monthlies look better.

Most if not all deals will do a one month rental upfront if you ask - and it is still the same overall cost for the full term.

I've never paid more than one monthly upfront in my leases to date.

So amortizing does tell the full story in my experience.

Cracking price!

you seem unsure what this deal is in total? you need to check check then check again.. you may cause confusion posting different amounts. exactly what you are looking to avoid according to your posts.

Nice

so why would you post its £6239.60?

Has anyone got the basic spec for this S Line model as I can't find this on the site? Also, is the virtual cockpit an add-on?

((9+23) x £190.30) + £180 = £6,269.60 or £261.23/net/month.

as a wise joiner said measure TWICE and cut once my friend.,check your sums

Of course it's understandable, but in this very thread, someone assumed that this car was cheaper that a Fiesta, which is unlikely.

Ironically, the total price of this deal is incorrect on this thread. Should be £6,269.60 as the total.

No I don't it's necessary. Breaking down the deposit + monthly payment * x + admin fee is perfectly understandable.

and you get a bunch of flowers or fives as well as a kick up the a..e

VWFS are one of the few that don't limit excess mileage though. Most as you probably already know limit it to a maximum of 10% on top of the total allowance to prevent opportunists like yourself!

I know this is a stupid question but I'm asking anyway:
What happens when the lease is up after 2 years? Is it mine? Do I give it back?

Misleading in the sense that it would be nicer to realise what you are paying net per month. Same goes with a broadband of mobile deal. Given this is a consumer driven website, there would be no harm showing both the gross and net amounts, no?

VW charges 6p+vat/mile so 7.2p, but you can call VWFS mid-way into the lease and increase your allowance and they will provide you with a new monthly payment plan (+£60 admin fee) but even with the admin fee included, it will work out much cheaper. I luckily got the Passat Alltrack deal with 5000miles/year but I needed 12000miles/year. I called VWFS and they gave me a new quote and now I'm paying about 4p/mile for the extra mileage. Way cheaper doing this than taking out a 12000mile/year plan from the outset.

How is it misleading? To anyone else it's very straight forward yet I have noticed in the last few lease deals you seem to have an issue with the industry standard way of laying out the terms of the offer.

You are amortising the total payment over the 24 months and dividing it by 24. Both ways work out exactly the same over the course of the agreement, but you still have a chunk to pay at the start so amortising doesn't tell the full story!

Sorry mate but that's a long post to make and be completely wrong. Do what I do and listen to what m5rcc has to say.

Deals best posted for amortized amount (as suggested above) or price per mile if that floats your boat.

Loose rule of thumb on 2 year deal is to be under 25% of list RRP on total cost of the term, to be considered good.

This seems to fit that requirement. Hot from me

good deal, daughter pays more than this for Ford Fiesta on a lease agreement.

Is this the exact same spec as the one posted (at over 1000 degree heat)?

Two hours thirty minutes in and no idiots have commented yet, nice surprise!

Yes, but bear in mind that some lease companies only allow you to go 10% over the allocated mileage.

We currently have a lease for my wife's car, it's cheaper than PCP & Depreciation on buying. However the first payment ISN'T a deposit, it's a rental. You'll never get this back, which is an important consideration should you write it off after 3 weeks.

I have a company car & you can always ask to buy at the end of the lease, they just give you a price. It's rarely a good deal though. Price is based on current value of the car, nothing to do with list price.

Hope that helps

This is wrong. Your talking about PCP not Lease.

Oh right, I didn't take it as that when my girlfriend got one from JCT600, as it's a finance option and they don't want to risk ever losing out on £££. Maybe it's different from each company?

wow is that all? That's not too shabby, I thought it would be much higher.

I believe you only pay the initial payment and the monthly payments, unless you go over mileage then extra mileage charges, otherwise once the term is up it is up to the lease company if they sell it for more or less then and means you don't pay the remainder^ regardless of how much it's worth

Aim to not pay more that 6-7ppm inc. VAT.

Anybody what the rough fee is when/if you go over the mileage allowance on these lease deals?
I know they vary company to company, but is there a going rate that you should typically be looking for?

Its not a stupid question at all, yes you give it back to the the lease company :smile:

You get to keep it AND they give you a new one.

Good deal.

Not sure why it's cold when a more expensive one is hot....

Great deal Op!
Inb4 people start voting it cold.
