Company just rolled out a new scheme.
Speccing a Golf R out of curiosity, this the automatically generated quote I get from Leaseplan:

Your Quote Explained
P11D £31,330.00
"Basic Monthly Cost": £233.39
"Gross Monthly Cost": £449.64
"Net Cost To You†" (An estimate of the effect this may have on your disposable income): £511.44
Retail Comparison: £481.39

Why on earth would I get a car through the scheme if it's cheaper to go retail??
(and even cheaper judging by the offers seen on here for less than £300pcm)
