Sadly,not a hot lease deal.
In Scotland, got a £100 parking charge.
No legal requirement to name driver in Scotland.
Told lease company not to pay it as they are only flying a kite.
Lease company mailed me saying they will pay it if they get an unpaid notice from parking company.
I told them not to and I would be in touch.
Anyone been in this position?
My plan was to not engage with the parking company, but feel the lease company are forcing my hand.
I have been down this road before and had a positive outcome but the lease company was not Zen.
My car received a car park invoice which Zen forwarded on to me and I had quashed.In Scotland, got a £100 parking charge.

More recently the car picked up a bus lane contravention. At first Zen said they were passing it on to me and to wait to receive my copy, then a couple of weeks later they decided to pay it without consulting me and will DD me in 4 weeks. The infringement notice wasn't served within 28 days, so I planned to appeal, but now Zen have messed that up. I emailed Zen saying not to pass any charges onto me, if they do I will have the DD recalled.
This is an not often mentioned issue with leasing.

Hi, does anyone have a calculator/calculation to assess how good a deal a lease is based on the p11d and cost of lease? Cheers.
Add up the leasing costs. Work out the % of p11d. If it’s a 2 year deal and 10k miles, then you really want it to be under 25%.

Thanks. I am looking at an Audi Q4 etron 40 sline through a salary sacrifice scheme at work, it's coming out at £513 a month for 24m an 10k miles and no deposit which, bases on the p11d of the car at £52k works out at 24% which seems decent? Includes free charging point installed at home as well as car insurance.
I was going to say you can't make the usual comparison but you can do what you like, of course, however that price isn't "real" - it's a massive rip-off really, as the leasing company is getting your gross salary. If you're a 40% tax payer they're taking towards a grand a month, but they've carefully set the salary sacrifice price to look like a good deal against the open market.Depending on what you usually pay for insurance, and bearing in mind it can be a much dearer for EVs, including that could be a significant benefit (or it could ne neither here nor there if you don't normally pay much).
I think there was a recent salary sacrifice leasing thread.
ETA: Quick Google and there's a few of them: https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&as_q=salar...
