The Mercedes lists at £46,310, total lease costs over 2 years are £10k including VAT, even if you ignore finance costs and opportunity cost you've still got to sell for more than £36k for purchase to be cheaper.

Er - my point was exactly the same as yours - a 530d M Sport touring can be had on broadly comparable lease terms to the Merc. If I were in the market right now for a diesel estate I'd be checking both out and seeing which I prefer the feel of. I wouldn't contemplate buying either in the face of these deals.
I wasn't disagreeing with you, just making a follow on point.http://www.gateway2lease.com/z_toyota_hilux_3.0dou...
Deal on a Hilux here 9 + 23 and just over £200 inc Vat per month 10k pa, not bad?

I may be missing something, but why would you buy when you can lease for this money?
The Mercedes lists at £46,310, total lease costs over 2 years are £10k including VAT, even if you ignore finance costs and opportunity cost you've still got to sell for more than £36k for purchase to be cheaper.
But no one pays list. Orangewheels, as an example, has the Mercedes E CLASS E350 BlueTEC AMG Line Premium Plus 5dr 9G-Tronic Diesel Estate list price £46,511 availble to buy for £38,527The Mercedes lists at £46,310, total lease costs over 2 years are £10k including VAT, even if you ignore finance costs and opportunity cost you've still got to sell for more than £36k for purchase to be cheaper.

So would you hand over £38,527 of your own hard earned cash to buy, or would you lease for £287+VAT per month and send the thing back after 2 years?JPJPJP said:
You may have missed my earlier posts on this thread...
There is a leased E class estate on my drive right now: occupying the space that was previously home to a leased ML....
So you bought? I'm intrigued to know why, it makes no sense to me. There is a leased E class estate on my drive right now: occupying the space that was previously home to a leased ML....
I'm the kind of person who would always buy outright rather than hire/rent/lease/finance) but tying up £40k ish and gambling on minimal depreciation, together with the hassle of selling or part exchanging when you want to change, seems a strange choice when the alternative is just £287+VAT per month.

So does anyone think that buying one of these makes sense?
What happens if you want one to keep for 5/8/10 years, and you want to be the only owner.So does anyone think that buying one of these makes sense?
Or if you're feeling flush and getting one as a present for someone.
How does a poor credit history go down.
Or you want the baddest lowest pimped and bagged E350cdi (in metallic chicken gravy beige of course)
Many reasons to buy
Many reasons you can't lease.
Has anyone leased and then bought the car from the lease company? If so how was a purchase price agreed?
My neighbour leased an XF on a two year deal and then bought it off the company and although we didn't go into great detail he insinuated that purchase + lease costs combined were favourable to having bought new.
The lease broker through whom I've ordered a Golf R also stated that the lease companies were open to offers at the end of the lease.
I'm considering the 'what if you want to keep the car long term' arguement. I appreciation the lease companies are under no obligation to sell it to you but it must happen because their ultimate intention is surely to dispose of the car to the highest bidder.

You cannot buy the car from the lease co generally they go back into the AUC main dealer schemes which means they can control the residual prices better - it would be highly unlikely for you to be able to buy it / worth asking when the time comes as you never know but bank on having to give it back and wave goodbyeMy neighbour leased an XF on a two year deal and then bought it off the company and although we didn't go into great detail he insinuated that purchase + lease costs combined were favourable to having bought new.
