Depends when order was placed. Ours was ordered mid April and I'm told due at dealer 3rd week in August.

Yeah mine was April too after checking. Not long left then

Paid the processing on A5 via RGW earlier as well, as per the comments of others their staff member (Emily) was quick, friendly etc long way to go but they've been good this far...

Same as above: Sportback, Ibis White, 3+23 @ £299.

As per usual now that this order is placed I'm wondering what else may come be available at good value next? If something just as good value, but performance orientated, came along I'd be tempted to cancel...

Anyone got informed opinions on how much the potential VAT suspension/reduction could have on lease prices??

Can I ask how long it took for approval to come back please thank you

Looking for a lease for my sister and have found the below -

Ford Fiesta Hatchback
1.0 EcoBoost 95 ST-Line Edition 5dr

9+23
£133.74 per month
£1,203.66

What're everyone's thoughts, decent deal?

Slightly cheaper here;

https://leasing.com/independent-brokers/alpha-cont...

Ordered one for us on Monday on a 3+23 at £164. Will do as a second car/runaround.

Alpha contracts have been really quick at responding and they don’t have an admin fee!

Thanks, what do you anticipate the servicing costs will be? Also what colour did you pick? I was going to phone a dealer but a bit late for that..

Time has come to start thinking about replacing the 440GC.... However times change and I now need to be able to fit a German Shepherd in the car along with the a kid or two when we're not out in the family Kodiaq L&k.

Not really wanting to lose the performance of the 440 or go down the SUV route this has lead me to fast estate land....by fast I'm targeting sub 5.5 seconds to 60...examples seem. To be V60 B6, 340i Xdrive, Superb 280 TSi, Golf R, C43 Amg, A6 55....or upcoming Arteon R Shooting break or Cupra Leon St.

Aside from looking into viable options I've been s anning the usual places and not really seeing anything on a 3 + 23, 8k profile that's even remotely atrractive... Any ideas or just a case of bide my time?

This is my territory

You'll get the occasional Golf or Cupra but don't rely on seeing the rest

I got very lucky 2 leases ago (4 years) with a 335d Touring at £310 on 6+23 and saw an S4 Avant on marginally better terms just at the wrong time so ended up in one of the famous cheap Volvo estates. Which was luvvverly

Naff all this year so am currently in a PCP'd 530d Touring which was the only bargain I could find for family and dog transport

Its pretty barren at the moment
Didn't plan the PCP but it was only slightly more than another Volvo which have gone up significantly

Happy hunting

Was considering a second hand a5, but this price I'm seriously thinking about. Seems too good to miss out on when I weigh up the usual pros and cons of buying vs leasing.

I was in the same boat but then ended up leasing.. the problem with buying at the moment is the pool of cars aren' particularly brilliant so that's what edged it for me.

I ended up taking Contract Cars offer and I can't fault them so far. Yes, I agree they have extornate admin cost but it's all relative to the deal. Simon was fab - can't fault them so far.

This seems reasonable if anyone is after an XC90, especially the T8 model:

https://www.gateway2lease.com/cars/volvo/xc90/2.0-...

22.7% of ~ £66k list for 2 years, 10k miles on £469 per month for a 9+23.

£200 fee.

There have been some 0% deals on the V90 but didn't include the T6. Meant to be one of the best Hybrids on the market and quite like the V90 so may have a look.

Went for the chrome blue, but had a choice of black or silver at the advertised price. Would’ve thought it’d be about £200 for a service, and usually manage do just one service over a 2 year lease if you do it a few weeks late.

From enquiry to documents signed/finance approved in just under 48 hours, and delivery in around 2-3 weeks.

I don't think there's a chance for good deal on cars from your list, except Cupra.

Yeh, that's what I'm seeing... Bide my time it is, can extend the 440 month by month for another 6 so all in there's 9 months before I absolutely need something else.

Heard a rumour from an Audi dealer there may be some S4s coming up with decent deals as diesel only isn't proving overly popular but he could have just been blowing smoke, tbh I don't really want a diesel either, lol

Ta, I used to PCP and we PCP the family bus as it does 15k plus a year and we tend to change at between 30 and 36 months so if it comes to it and makes sense I've not against it.

Time is on my side so will wait it out for a bit..... At least I know I'm not going nuts and simply can't find anything :-)

Anyone with the a5 ask about extras? Would be interested to know about the comfort and sound package. I'm presuming the virtual cockpit in these can display the maps across the whole screen? Only seen images of the dials being digital.

5hrs after submitting credit check I got a call to advise it had went through and to pay the admin fee.

Just signed on the below deal with a family member. Not outrageous but fairly good at about 24% of list price, plus really need to shout out how smooth the process with ZenAuto is - they've had some very good UX designers in!

Skoda Kamiq 1.0 115 SEL + metalic paint
8000 miles
3+23 @ £215.89 per month
£99 admin fee

Hi, presume these are stock? Any ideas on colours available? Cheers

Metallic and flat bottom steering wheel were both quoted for me and it worked out at option cost over the term. But comfort and sound may increase residuals for funder so could work out cheaper possibly?

Was just looking at that 5 ins ago. Seems as your deal is Via one of the comparison sites.
Go directly via Zen and it’s £1000 upfront and £201/month.
No fee by ringing and quoting delivery now. Works outs about £80 cheaper overall. Not huge saving but info there if anybody else considering. They have various metallic colours as part of the deal. If you want to include spare wheel then extra £5/month

S4 would certainly get me interested, even if it is diesel. That said I certainly wouldn’t buy one.

For the right deal, I'd consider one even though I'd prefer petrol, compromise is always the name of the game here I guess.

Hmmmmm.....me too! I've been waiting for something like this for a while. Did he give any indication as to when we could see some deals coming through on this model??

[Blown2CV]

first thing that sprang to mind when i heard the new S4 and S6 were diesels... they're gonna be in this thread when they realise no one wants them

This is exactly the sort of thing I'm after to replace my E class, think I'll be giving them a call tomorrow.

Apologies if it's been discussed already - are these factory orders as per the current website/configurator?
