New car collected!

I can get a manual yea, but I chose DSG due to the type of driving I do and my preference.
 
My Dad and Step mum are on this, he's getting a Tiguan TDi 140 something or other next.

She has said she can get 2 cars on the scheme so I may be looking at this next - depends as I am growing quiet attached to my little meriva rofl
 
Nothing wrong with the colour (although I like green!), plus given he hands it back after 6 month he doesn't need to worry about what other people think of it i.e. if you plan to sell a car in the future then you might be more wary of 'unusual' colours due to the potentially more limited market, but not in this case - just go with something you personally like.
 
I've seen a quite a few FR around lately and they can look quite ordinary in safer colours. I like the red and blue also. A1 will be nice in Scuba blue. This is the exact colour/model I'm getting:

Quicker than the FR too, not sure how handling will compare, the FR is pretty good in that regard.
 
Amazing deal!

What larger cars are on the list out of interest?

On the same list as the A1 I went with, there were quite a few to choose from. 2-3 pages for each Audi, Skoda, VW and Seat. Most are run of the mill cars, nothing special engine or spec wise. I did consider these though.

VW Passat CC R-Line 2.0 TDI 177ps DSG £162/month
A4 Avant 2.0 TDI quattro S Line 177ps S Tronic £187/month
Yeti Outdoor Elegance 2.0 TDI 177ps DSG £150/month
 
Can't help but think you'll be disappointed with the A1 compared to the Leon. But at least you'll only have it for 6 months!
 
Yea it's possible, but I'm sure it will still be fun being small and having decent power.
 
So the Leon goes back on the 8th, and I pick up the A1 for the next 6 months. I have the list for the car I will be collecting in May 2015, and so far this is really taking my fancy.

Scirocco R-Line 2.0 TSI 220PS DSG £151/month

As a backup option:

Leon 5dr 2.0 TDI DSG FR 184 £133/month

I was very tempted by this, but the price and practicality aren't worth it.

New TT Coupe 2.0 TFSI quattro S line 230 S tronic £193/month

LiE do you work for group services or one of the brands up there?

I visit there once a week and the deals you get on cars are amazing. I'm jealous of the Audi salesman who has the RS7 ;)

I looked at the new TT when it was in the showroom up there and it's very impressive
 
I dunno, considering it's only for 6 months i'd be very tempted by the new TT

I am still very tempted, just not sure even 6 months of reduced practically would work. I'll have to look at one over the weekend.

I don't work for them, my younger brother is a master tech so gets 2 additional people onto this scheme. His choice list is much more impressive than the one I get, he'll be driving some serious machines when he hits 25.
