Best Lease Car Deals Available? (Vol 3)

Nowhere near it, I ran a poll on VWROC and it was about 27% leased, 41% PCP, 25% bought outright and the rest was financed in another way (loan, mortgage, etc). There were 122 votes, so a decent sample size. There was also a previous poll (it turns out) with similar results and an even bigger sample size.
Someone asked who would pay £30k+ for a new Golf R when you can get them for £26k. The answer is "most people". By definition of being on this site you [we] are probably more enthusiastic about and clued up on cars than the general population (who's numbers greatly exceed ours). That general population make many ill judged purchasing decisions, especially when it comes to cars. I know people in car sales and believe me, there will be plenty of punters that wander into VW on a Sunday for a "look" because they "fancy a change" only to wander out with a Golf R on PCP with a £500 deposit contribution to make them feel good (but otherwise paying virtually list). Also, they probably traded thier 3 year old Astra for £750 less than it was actually worth so it's a net win for the dealer.

No chance, personal leasing is still very much a minority sport and very much a way for manufacturers to shift cars cheap and quick under the radar of the general car buying public.Just take a sample around your own life.
There's 30 cars on our project site today, I know all the guys. They are well paid contractors with their own cars and I am the only one to lease a car.
In my circle of close friends, I am the only one to lease a car.
In my entire family, I am the only one to lease a car.
That makes me 1 in at least 50 or more. so max 2% by that measure. Long may it stay that way!

Decent Golf R estate deal at CVL;
https://www.centralukvehicleleasing.co.uk/vehicle/...
Not as cheap as the deals a few months ago iirc but £303 amortised is better than anything I can see on CH&L even taking in to account the lower 5k mileage for this deal
Ooh that's a corker. Cheaper than the Tiguan R-Line I wanted!https://www.centralukvehicleleasing.co.uk/vehicle/...

Do you have a link to this poll please? TIA.JuanGandini said:
I'm a bit gutted that the Cupra deals weren't around in Jan when I plumped for the 1.4 Audi A4 deal. Only £30 per month more (initial payment the same) yet pretty much double the BHP and dynamic driving experience. The pitfalls of leasing eh?!
I always go into a lease prepared to end up in a £1k banger for a few months at the other end should nothing interesting be available at my budget. Paying any amount of money to drive something dull can have you looking at the calendar and counting down the days like a man on death row.I've had to do the banger thing a few times now and it's actually pretty good fun. God! Looking back i actually remember those cars more fondly than the lease cars in-between. I could be onto something here.

What's this in regards to ? Can't find the original post!?I've read on the forum people getting additional mileage for around 3ppm after calling up VWFS but one of my friends called 15 months in and he was quoted at 6ppm+ vat with the 60 pound admin fee.
