I would recommend to read back maybe 50 pages of this thread to get a feel for the deals on offer and the leasing web sites to follow, ignore the jeep pages as that was a false deal, then over a couple of weeks monitor these sites and you'll get a feel for a good one. Having a spreadsheet to track the 2 year cost as a percentage of the recommended price is a good idea and then when something comes along go for it and don't delay.

I'm considering one of the golf match deals and if nothing else comes along by the weekend I'll probably go for it.
Didn't realise the Jeep turned out to be false. I thought a fair few people paid a deposit at around the £250/month mark? Have they all been let down?

Remember you'll get taxed at your highest rate on your car allowance too so you'll have a chunk less than £350 pcm to actually spend. Unless you're saying £350 net of tax obviously.

Yeah, I'm taxed on the £350, so technically £280ish per month. It's essentially being added to my salary every month.

You're also paying National insurance on it at 12% if you're a lower rate tax payer.
However you can get some tax back off the taxman at the end of the year, the amount will depend on your mileage.

but if you're currently in a company car, you will no longer be paying BIK so can add that saving back on

I have just signed up for a 15k 1+23 Seat Ibiza 1.2 TSI FR with Technology Pack (Sat Nav).

£186 a month which includes maintenance (servicing and tyres) and £180 admin fee. Around £4600 for hassle free motoring for two years. Just add fuel and insurance, or at least I hope it works out that way.

I know you are trying to be helpful, however the offers you are presenting aren't necessarily the best price for that car.
I know, I was more trying to show the range of cars on offer. Sorry.

It didn't turn out to be false. They booked their allocation of Jeep 'supported' (ie. Discounted) vehicles in no time at all. Then they kept booking more orders based on assumption that Jeep would supply more vehicles at the same discount.... long story short... they wouldn't. So Mangoletsi had to let down a whole load of people they had taken deposits from. But some lucky b4stards will still be getting a cheep jeep.

I had that deal email to me today. 1.2tsi fr Ibiza with tech & nav for 125/month. 8k miles!? No upfront. Absolute bargain.

Would be ideal for the wife to drive to work & back.

It was false for me as I was one of the ones let down,😒

I really hope you enjoy the jeep, seriously.

+1

Would love to know the real story though. I noticed a firm on Facebook sharing the deal and saying they'd got two - I asked how they were and all reference to it disappeared.
