2018 fiesta st 300 month lease 2k down

Spoke to ford today and got given the above quote, is this a joke?

Out of interest, what were you expecting?

It's a car with a base price of £19k that's not even on the market yet. Assuming 6+35 or thereabouts that's circa 12k to lease it for three years. Seems about right given the depreciation and where the car is in it's lifecycle. There will be deals later no doubt.

Assuming that they are in the business of selling cars, i'm guessing not?

That’s pretty much exactly what I expected it would be in the ballpark of ... what am I missing here??

+1

New car, in demand, Ford not having to discount them heavily to leasing companies to get them sold, etc, etc.

Seems a reasonable deal at this stage in its life cycle.

Considering can get a new a class Amg for 250 or a golf gti and cupra 300

And?? That means nothing, those 3 are all one class size larger than the fiesta so there’s no direct comparison at all - plus different demographs

Just because the Mercedes is a more luxury car i thought they would be more expensive and youd get the fiesta for like 220.

The days of golf r for 199 are long gone.

[antonw99]

Golf R bmw 1 series shadow project or a ford fiesta around 300 haha it's madness

[antonw99]

Yeah golf r for cheaper than a fiesta

Not really, it’s just how the market works. All of those cars are knocking on a bit now and have manufacturer support behind them to keep the volumes up.

Later on there will be plenty of deals on the Fiesta.

I understand more now, doesn't work How I thought it would do

And here is the error ... Mercedes, especially the A series are not luxury by any means, they’re white box for people with (possibly) misplaced aspirations

Golf R and Fiesta ST are not comparisons at all. Running costs are vastly different also.

Have you looked into PCP on the Fiesta? Deals to be had from people like CarWow or Drive The Deal,
