Surely the fuel bill just getting out his drive is equal to a monthly subscription...how does he do it?

Okay, now I'm not sure if serious.

That's a lovely looking E46, great colour combo.

Gave mine the essential new car going over today. All is well.

After having the golf for 2 weeks, I am now on the lookout for a new car, didn't like it at all. Parents think it's wiser for me to lease, so going to look at something on a 12 month contract.

Any pictures of the Golf?

If you need, I'll get some when I'm home from class.

Does anyone care to know of any good deals or websites for short term leasing? 12-24 months.

I am not sure I understand why your parents think it is 'wise' to lease for 12 months? It almost certainly isn't - a 12 month lease (unless its a particularly good deal subsidised for a particular reason) is generally poor value as a car suffers its biggest amount of depreciation in year 1 and a lease is priced to take this into account!

+1

Lease for 12 months? Having a laugh surely?

Where's this 'ere Golf then?

What Spec/Engine did you go for?

I've got the 2.0 TDI blue motion '12 plate - with all the trimmings (satnav/bluetooth/cruisecontrol/leather), can't really fault the car. Nothing 'amazing' about it, but the car's solid all round!

1.4 TSI, SE. And I meant to say a 24 month lease contract. It's actually more beneficially seeing as my first car racked up over £800 in MOT repairs in the first 5 months, so leasing total price of around £2500 over 2 years seems better and less hassle. Looking at a C1 anyway, 5 door, £90 a month, cheap run around.

Where can you lease a Golf TSI for £104/month?
