TBH, depending on your salary if you are moving out maybe just what you need is completely fixed cost no hassle motoring? Last thing you want is an older car throwing up unexpected expense.
Pah, my on call compensation covers that alone. I'd be tempted to take Lookers up on this deal if I wast such a hopeless tight arse
Actually why am I still driving a 12 year old shopping trolley? *scuttles back off to pistonheads*

DO NOT BUY A DEPRECIATION ASSET ON FINANCE END OF.
Just pay a grand over the odds for a car instead.
What would your insurance be on this?Pah, my on call compensation covers that alone. I'd be tempted to take Lookers up on this deal if I wast such a hopeless tight arse

There is no 'buy' here, because it is a lease. You dont buy it unless you take the option to purchase at the end of the lease. What exactly are you talking about?
I think you are confused with people who finance the purchase of a vehicle with little or no equity in the deal and end up owing more than the value of the car.

Are you retarded Fox?
I dont know, you are the one who has dived into the thread with two posts containing random sentances not really relevent to the topic typed entirely in capital letters, and one reply with an insult disguised as a question, so you tell me?

I am seriously tempted by this deal.

Fair point, I'm on about £31k/yr but my girlfriend will be in full time education so that will be the only wage. I don't really want to commit to it before I know all the facts of my situation. Could be that I would just do without a car for a while. Unfortunate timing I suppose

People are getting far too wound up about the whole finance thing here.
This kind of deal is for people who don't care about actually owning the car, people who want as Fox says just to pay a fixed cost each month to drive a brand new, and hopefully hassle free car.
People who are of the opinion they want to own a car and that's it, and that they will never buy anything without having the cash for it, are never going to agree with a deal like this. So there's no point bickering about it.
End of the day, someone on 30k+ a year and into their cars isn't really going to mind spending £200 a month to get this if they are the first kind of person.
As said, it's effectively a lease with an option to buy at the end if you want.
This is not the same as Carcraft Clios

Normally people who value the ability to have a 'new car' and 'fixed cost' get completely and utterly conned in the process. This is a rare deal which actually isn't that bad, therefore it's right to see it for what it is - a pretty decent deal.

Completely agree. Hence why I'm quite tempted to go look at one this weekend
I've had a hankering for a 182 for a while now, and this has well and truly caught my eye. Need to find out some figures for additional mileage (work out if it'd be cost effective to pay the 6p/mile extra or to pay a bit more per month for a higher allowance) and any options that I fancy. Plus see what they'd give me in p/x for my leon out of curiosity.
The way I see it, ~£8500 GFV and the oldest examples are over £10k on Pistonheads at the moment. Can't be bad Shirley? Obviously after 2 years there'll be a lot more on the market so the GFV will be more realistic, but still you won't be paying much more than the depreciation so you've not technically lost anything.
If I do go and have a look at one and get any figures I'll report back
£200 a month
If you think I'm joking...
