Wasn't there a comment upstream that said VWFS will only transfer a private lease to a limited company, or was I imagining that?

Anyone seen any good deals on R estate recently? G2L had a decent one a while back but gone apparently.

26mpg - yikes! you must drive like a hooligan! In that case you'll prob get mid teens out of the mustang!

C63 I would love.
I get 25 out of mine and I was thinking the other day just how differently I would have driven it if I had one in my twenties. It certainly isn't driven in a PH worthy way judging by some the tales on here! That said it does very few long motorway runs which I am sure would push the average up significantly.

Vehicle Savers seems to be the best at the moment, I've got a Limestone Grey Night Blue 5 door hatchback on order with them and service has been superb.

It's still not quite as good as the deal G2L had on the estate - that was an absolute belter, just came too early for me.

They don't currently offer the R estate, and their hatch deals are more expensive than Vehicle Savers. From past experience I've also found them to be a pretty shoddy company to communicate with.

Just put in a request on vehicle saver for a DSG with nav over 24 or 36 months. Will see that they come back with smile

The nav will push the price up quite a bit. Its one of those extras that is basically paid for within the length of the lease (whereas DSG for example is effectively discounted).

Agreed, really wish mine was a 2016 so had that! Means you can use apple or google maps on the standard composition media screen

Also there is the possibility to pay cash for options at the start of the lease rather than spreading the cost, so you save on the Interest

On the same 9+23 schedule the Vehicle Savers deal is £215.24, compared to £231.88. Vehicle Savers admin however is £360 (payable when you place the order) and Gateway is only £180. Not sure about the G2L excess but with Vehicle Savers the deal is financed through Arval and is 9.4ppm incl VAT.

I've added metallic to my Vehicle Savers order and it has added about £17 per month.
