the little journeys round Peterborough are best suited for the Focus, not the 407.
I wonder how people would feel if they had to pay for a year running costs at the same time they buy the car.![]()
cost of car: £47 per month in tax (company car) = £564 per annum = £2,256 over 4 year lease
TAX : £0 road tax (paid by company) - taxed on car as BIK as above
Insurance: £0 (paid by company)
Petrol: All business fuel covered (company fuel card), personal contribution £40 per month average for personal mileage = £480 per annum of £1,920 over 4 year lease
Maintenance Costs: £0 (paid by company)
Cleaning Stuff: £0 (fuel card lets me get car washed etc)
Total works out at £87 per month, £1,044 per annum and £4,176 over 4 year lease. Fuel contribution fluctuates slightly but most I ever pay is £60 (rationalised every 3 months).

Plus
Tax £195 ish
Insurance £570 ish
AA £100
Cleaning stuff spent £300 or so but have loads left.
Only had it a week, a 2010 Ford Focus Econetic, old car was a 2004 Peugeot 407. swapped to save costs.
You swapped a £2000 car for a £8000 car to save money. That is £6000 you need to save in fuel bills before you break even.
But the constant expenses/repairs on the 407 were getting silly...it was a heap.
