Got a 5 door 1.25 Fiesta for £87 a month no deposit. 2 year lease with 9k miles per annum.

I call bullst.

£2,088.00 in total, no deposit...I'll believe it when I see proof.

Hate these lease threads, where people either plain lie...cannot back up their facts. Or forget the fact that there is a deposit to pay!

That's what annoys me too. If I wanted to pay a massive deposit, why would I lease a cheap car? The whole idea is that from start to finish its cheap motoring with no hassle.

The closest I've seen to that is the Fiat Panda deal, and as above if there is a VW Up deal for £129/£129 then I'd love to see it.

Dacia Sandero is £99/£99 for the 1.2 Access, £119/£119 for the 1.2 Ambiance and £139/£139 for the 1.5DCI

Would love one of those for less than 100 notes per month!! Funky looking things.

I looked at VW UPs for a runaround at one point. Actually very nice cars, and don't feel like a tin box at all!

However, when it suddenly dawned on me how much money I would be spending on it, with the spec I wanted I changed my mind. If it can be had for £129 a month, with £129 deposit - and a reasonable spec. Someone tell me where...I will go and buy it, put a custard pot on the seat and take a photo to prove I bought it! There's a challenge!

Do these lease deals include all the servicing too? If that fiesta deal above is legit that's almost down to bangernomics money at £1k/year.

You usually pay extra to include full maintenance, seems far too cheap to be legit doesn't it! I'd even be up for it as that price.

Stick heated leather in and some other nice Chromey bits, good looking alloys and the 75 bhp lump and its easily £200 a month. That's what we pay on ours, although it is a very good car.

Edit: PCP mind.

Yep...when I was looking the one I was potentially going for as a runaround was coming in to around £10-11k...and as a runaround I decided that was too much!

[Toaster Pilot]

£200 a month seems like crazy money for a supermini - surely you could be in a Polo or Golf for that kind of cash?

30 seconds with Google found this:

Volkswagen Up Hatchback 1.0 Take Up 3dr
6 + 47 lease.
731.10 down and 121.85 monthly.

Not a pocket money deposit but not an expensive one either.

Brought a Fiat Panda 1.2 Lounge last month. 1500 off list price, £500 deposit, 48 months @£114. Final payment £3400. 1.8% apr.

(and £70 a month into a pot to pay off the final payment).

Also paying 16.99 a month to cover 3 years servicing.

No, I did not pay for Supaguard.. Gtechniq, thank you very much

I'm aware I could have had XYZ for the same amount but wife wanted a new car and so far its proven to be almost amusing to drive, stereo's ok, air con is ok, easy to park and perfect for the school run.

Did consider a Mii or the Citigo but wanted 3 seats in the back.

That shouldn't be difficult...100 Notes, per month, will cost you £158990






Sorry.

Polo deals were 7.9% with a larger deposit for PCP and the local VW dealer's customer service is shoddy, so no Up! on the list.

Sorry, you said you "Brought" it, I dont normally comment but where did this quirk of the English language originate from, loads of people do it despite it being wrong, am genuinely interested. I can cope with all the other errors and probably make a few myself but the brought/bought thing drives me mad.



bought: to have purchased something. It is the past tense of the word buy.
They bought their car from a registered dealer

brought: to have carried or taken something/someone with you. It is the past tense of the word bring. She brought a friend with her to the conference.

My mrs has a new fiesta zetec 3dr in white for £80 a month on 2 year pcp, but i work for ford so not a fair comparison to a normal retail punter. Her ka edge was £40 a month last year but we have just changed it in march.

£99 a month on ka studio (basic ) is easily available on a pcp

not as frequent or as bad as the typical "should of" vs. "should have" "would of" "could of" "might of" etc

However I suspect the "brought" is simply a typo rather than language ignorance
