What car - Recession Edition
Discussion
Right.
I've had enough of the high(ish) life. Audi TT must go. I want a new car on finance. What is the simplist deal right now where I can walk in, minimal deposit, low monthly payment and have a car that will cost me next to nothing bar payments for the next 3 years?
Was interested in the Peugeot Just had fuel deal but small print suggests a 5k deposit with is just silly!
My TT I think will be worth around 2500 trade in as it's pretty old now!

If you want bargain motoring, by a £1000 shed. I've had enough of the high(ish) life. Audi TT must go. I want a new car on finance.

Insurance is costing me £100 a month right now plus 150-200 in petrol = £300 a month car cost, not to mention tax, maintenance etc
The pug deal got me thinking, new car, warranty, servicing, insurance, tax all sorted for a 3 years for £180 a month. Just the 5k deposit was the kicker!
I just want a white goods car and not have to think about it.

I think they are all 48 months but I'm sure you can negotiate a shorter period for not a huge amount more.
Or Ling cars.....

with those sort of deals, you are paying for expensive main dealer servicing, just a bit at a time, if you get a 5 year old yaris or a C1 or something like that you will run it on absolute fresh air, much cheaper over 3-5 years than any new peugeot. Make sure you get a small petrol though or an old tech diesel so you don't have to worry about exploding expensive bits.
worked example, £3k yaris, worth £1,500 after 3 years, therefore £500/yr depreciation, £100 service and average of £60/yr on tyres, even with £150/yr repairs for the £50 MOT = £71/month like for like

Isn't PH maybe the wrong forum for such a want? The pug deal got me thinking, new car, warranty, servicing, insurance, tax all sorted for a 3 years for £180 a month. Just the 5k deposit was the kicker!

Maybe the What Car or Parkers forum would suit better?

Audi A1 is £199 a month with 5 years servicing...
This has tempted me the most...Try kia, etc.
mondeo suggestion: £1000 over 3 years, = £27 per month for the car. Peanuts for maintenence as said.
this is where you need to be.
