Best Lease Car Deals Available? (Vol II)

Why are people ringing vw dealers, who are in direct competition to these lease companies, then surprised when the dealer tells them it's not legit and offers them something else. Vested interest???

FFS... don't be dumb. They aren't miraculously getting cars from a rabbit hole somewhere. VW know the deals. The dealer I spoke to first thing ran a quote on the system and came up with the £135 per month offer. Amazing. Trouble is, it isn't available. Her line manager stepped in after checking the unbelievable price and found that the deal was only available for cars in stock and delivered by March 31st. They have quite a few but they are high spec and more expensive.

Nobody. Repeat NOBODY is getting an Alltrack via factory order at £135 (or less) per month. The only way this would be done is if the dealer for some insane reason decided to honour the deal via goodwill and why the hell would they do that!?

Just got an email from CVL about the Passat Alltrack some someone still thinks it is on.

Same situation with my current m135i and A6 before that.

"That can't be right sir", why not pay £200/month extra to us.

A dealer is just a shop, cars will be coming through vw direct in a commercially confidential deal that dealers won't be able to match. Eventually the cars will be supplied through one dealer who will take a minimum margin, but on 1000s of cars

We have just been informed by Volkswagen Financial Services that the VW Passat Alltrack deal was an error and has now been withdrawn.

Unless you have a finance application approved on the exact car and offer they will not honour any quotes.

Mine was down to £129 for the 190 DSG model - there is a chance that some dealer networks have standard or close to standard cars already in stock, so some people could drop lucky.

Following the Golf R debacle I had vowed to never consider a VW ever again.....

[Innowaybored]

Still on hold to NVS but in meantime also rang my local VW dealer. He is taking a look and getting back to me.

I may well get one as it seems too good to be true ! Not bothered about factory order - more than happy with in stock items

Soon as i saw these deals i jumped onto Nationwide and had a look. Yeah deffo a balls up as the price has now shot up from £150 pm to over £500 inc VAT. Was nearly ready to cancel my A4 order and get one of them aswell! Now i know the Audi deals are cheap but if these VW ones were true they would have been mega ridiculous.

Shame

The 2.0TDI 190 is still showing at £119.99 for me. Tempted to stick in an application and see what happens. Would make a decent addition to the Golf R.

Do it! AS someone said on here they may still honor the ones advertised. Tbh i'm kinda glad they were taken off. As good a deal as it is/was i do less than 10k PA and do mostly stop/start journeys so the DPF wouldn't last 5 mins. Just wished they did the A4 with the 1.4 in an auto and it would be perfect; even at a slightly dearer cost.

Hey ho. Good luck with it. Let us know how you get on.

Just put in an application with NVS. What a mad amount of car for the money. Fingers crossed.

Good stuff! Hope it goes through mate

Thanks! Just need to decide whether to get it in Night Blue Metallic to match my Golf R

You certainly like your VW's don't you They do some nice colours in the Passat Alltracks i must say. That Habanero orange is nice but its £970 quid which is a bit steep! Isn't there another blue aswell? Was trying to look at some on Autotrader but they didn't do many of the new shape.

I don't think we can get more definite than that - thanks for updating us - does that mean that if our finance was approved this morning then we could get one at that price?

Who is "we". Do you mean you personally, or is that from NVL?

Potentially yes. That's what we're hoping.

[egoold]

Just had email from central leasing saying the deal had been pulled due to a pricing error

Yes me personally, in communication with VWFS.

Thanks.

Still hopeful that application through NVL is honoured. Had the same when trying to get dealers to match previous deals, but the lease companies came through. I'll wait to hear from NVL that it's been pulled before giving up.

Quote dtuk for free delivery. Thank me later.

Anyone else facepalming right now ;-)

[imdeman87]

I like the excessive use of exclamation marks!!!!

[RayPike]

Just been called back by my dealer to confirm it's a mistake...

However...

VW will honour any saved quotes in the system if the customer goes ahead. I have 5 of them saved that my dealer can use. She's just checking which of them are still in stock.

Just had the call. I have 3 to choose from: Silver DSG for £197 per month (with 19" wheels and Dynamic chassis wotsit), Blue DSG with all sorts on for £261 or Habanero manual at £231 with some whistles and bells too....

If I don't use the quotes, she can offer them to other people. I'm thinking about it!

With VW you can get the same deal as the brokers from your local dealer - you just have to get past the retail sales people to the one who handles business sales, and they may not be geared up, or bothered, to handle a single sale.

The finance is always provided by VWFS - the variations you see are just different presentations of the same deal.

[BensZ4MC]

Just been told that VW made a pricing error and may cancel all orders! Not great :-(

[S7GVC]

Great way to generate some hype over a car most didn't even know existed
