Volkswagen Golf Estate 2.0 TSI 310ps R DSG 4Motion MK7.5
This is the facelift model. There are other terms available and excess mileage is 8.4p / mile - you can usually get a better quote by calling up midway through your lease to increase the mileage (but don't rely on this too much as it's not guaranteed).
£1,987.20 initial payment and £220.80 (Inc VAT) per month for the remaining 23 months (9 + 23). Smaller initial payments are available at a slightly increased total cost over term.
It's also available with an 8,000 miles p/a allowance at £1,933.20 initial payment and £214.80 (Inc VAT) per month for the remaining 23 months (9 + 23) - this saves £192 over the term for low mileage users.

Incredible deal. No doubt there will be the usual plethora of face palm inducing "special members" who still fail miserably to grasp the concept of the value in this deal....
Brace yourself for comments such as "I brought (sic) my vauxhall nova for 100 quid from a scrap dealer and it runs fine after I rebuilt the entire car, much cheaper than 7k!"

You can only ever compare a lease with buying a new car. Or possibly in some cases a nearly new car.. If you were to buy new, using conventional financing, you would lose a significant amount in depreciation when selling eafter 2,3,4 years etc. E.g a 25k car after 2 years might be worth only 15 k now, so lost 10k in depreciation. If a lease was available which cost only 7k for 2 years... the this would be a perfect example of why a lease would be better in this instance.
In order to understand the real value of a lease you need to calculate the cost of ownership for the duration of ownership. In the example above the new car would have cost you 10k for 2 years but the lease would have been 7k. In the case of the lease the car would go back, in the case of the conventional purchase (assuming PCP), the car would also go back unless paying it off, or if lucky, and the value is higher than the optional final payment amount then you will have some positive equity to put forward to another vehicle.
Simple right? :P
Remember, you can only compare leasing to buying a NEW car. You simply cannot compare it to buying a second hand car. Albeit in many circumstances, the option of purchasing the second hand car might be both, cheaper and more sensible toward your personal finances!

You are paying for the depreication of the vehicle whislt having the privilage to drive it.
Many people spend £300+ on rail fares per month, you don't get to keep the train at the end of it!
Much better to spend the money on leasing a car.... no waiting in the cold for the delayed train, no sitting next to a noisy/smelly/weird person. You can move around at your leisure, in superior comfort (even if you are stuck in traffic).
It's a no-brainer.

Act quick all who are interested, only 200 of these are available at the good rates (which isn't a lot) from what I have heard.

My R was £6700 ish on 2 year 10k, but the best deal there has been on these for a long time. Given the estate is DSG by default it's the best deal there ever has been if an estate is acceptable

how does leasing a car work? do you hand it back after the contract, do you get the option to buy it at the end? thanks
