Never looked into leasing b4 so you recon it’s a lot cheaper ?
Depends what you're looking for a car to keep after the pcp deal is up or looking to change every 2 years or so? Lease monthlys are nearly always cheaper, I paid 131 a month on my Cupra 290BE, now got an s4 for 280 including about 40 a month in options, its all to do with what deals are around, I don't look for a perticular car, I look for what deals are floating about then go for the car which I fancy

There is a leasing thread on piston heads where people post deals, I mainly look at national vehicle solutions, freedom contracts etc, beginning and end of quarters are when the best deals pop up normally

Great way bud thank you where’s the best place to go looking ??
Go onto whatcar.com they have comparison website which will list all the main dealers. Just put in your expected mileage and what down payment you are intending to put down say a 3+35 contact based on 8k per year non maintained would be about £906 to put down and then around £302 with no admin fees and delivered to your door. Unless you want to put a larger down payment down to lower you monthly payments

If there are any squaddies or international diplomats reading this... I don’t think you’ll ever see a better deal?

Yup, never thought I ended up with a Volvo V40 (£222/month6+23) (always thought it would have been another Leon/Arona/Ibiza/Polo type cars). Randomly I would also see good deals for Audi A3 Black Edition.

there was a big article on PCP last week or the week before about how its becoming pointless as when the car is ready to be handed back the value is much lower than guaranteed therefore another deposit amount is required. used car values are falling faster than ever for modern cars. best way now in my eyes is a lease or buy a car at 3 years old, but even then you will be paying the same monthly probably as a brand new car on a lease that has warranty etc.

This is for people overseas working under NATO or Diplomatic posts where they have access to diplomatic plates to avoid tax, been this price for months.

It can’t be lower value than guaranteed.
If it was lower the finance company had to take the hit.
If you mean that there may be no extra equity left to put towards a deposit then that is never a guarantee.

no the actual value of the vehicle is lower than the guaranteed value. which is fine as a customer as that does not affect you however in that case you are better of with a personal lease as generally they are cheaper and have the same outcome

In other words the 20% VAT is avoided...no wonder it's cheap!

just ordered a MY20 Cupra Lux 290 through Motorfinity (Motor Source Group). £1k deposit, 12k a year, 48 months = £335 per month. happy with that :)

That sounds reasonable in that you get a good car for not that much a month.
The downside is you have to keep it 4 years and the payments come to £17k.
This new car buying business can be confusing and is never cheap!

It wasn't that clear cut for me. I was tempted by leasing but cars that were listed as available straightaway were actually factory orders.
It's definitely worth looking at a personal lease, but I don't think lease is directly comparable. My insurer won't give standard new vehicle replacement for lease but does for HP or PCP. And I'm minded to buy the car at the end of the PCP, which isn't part of the lease deal (although I know some have negotiated this).
