Don't want to put links but it's easy to find, this is a crazy price for the performance/spec of this car, nothing even comes close to this! £400 down, no other deposit! 18month lease.

I don't think this offer will last long but wanted everyone to know about it - it's cheaper than a Kona etc.

It's not a misprint, people have ordered. I am trying to do man maths to get one.

How is this price even possible, it's a £70k car, 0-60 in 4 seconds, 90kwh battery!! Less than half the price of a Tesla!

For business users, sure. For me, privately, given my annual mileage it's closer to £700

There is no advantageous pricing in this instance for business users. True, it is expensive to exceed the mileage allowance (£0.29/mile). But if you take info account the overall deal I think it is competitive.

Hey pal, most of the dealers seem to have it eg: https://www.fleetprices.co.uk/personal-lease-cars/...

But we're talking about the deals here: https://www.speakev.com/threads/is-this-is-great-i...

Hope that's ok to post mods.

Competitive it may be. For my criteria it'll never be £400 a month.

It is perfect second car territory, or even weekend toy with the iPace performance but crazy cheap to run.

Apparently this deal is almost entirely sold out, I guess it will be popular within the congestion zone. I'd not be surprised if it's gone by tomorrow night from what the dealers are saying.

What cars do meet your criteria?

Has anyone got a real life pic, or seen the "S" Spec? I've seen the HSE/First Edition and they look good, but this S spec isn't looking good at all going by the configurator. Either the configurator is not selling it enough, or it looks like a boggo E-Pace.

Quite a lot of people over on speakEV have been saying how small it actually is, it isn't big like the Tesla modelS at all.

But for £400 a month the performance, running costs and spec is amazing. I am right on the edge of buying one.

As far as I can see there is very little difference in looks between S and SE and HSE.

Wheels are the main difference. Fog lights and headlights. That's basically it.

They all run the same motor and battery so no difference in performance.

The S has a pretty decent spec, nav, reversing camera, auto lights / wipers, keyless, cruise, leather and LED lights.

From what I have seen the only 2 options we would add on would be different wheels and rear privacy glass.

Quite a lot of people on speakev are talking rubbish, then - it’s not that small. Does my head in all the Tesla fans constantly finding any excuse to slag off the iPace and excusing Tesla’s any and all faults. And breather smile

I’ve taken the deal. 9+17 for £350 per month for the SE version. I wanted the leather seats and bigger wheels. Seems like a great deal. My current lease car ( Golf R) goes back in March just when the ipace should be delivered. Looking forward to it

The I-Pace isn't small. It'll seat tall adults in the rear comfortably, and has room in the boot for my longsword (long story)

I'd be all over this if I hadn't just ordered a Santander V90, although I suspect it'll be pricey at the 10k miles mark.

What sort of mileage is that on?

Order placed for the 1+17 deal. Delivery in March or April next year. Will be an interesting contrast to move from an XFR-S to the iPace! Pity it is (relatively) poverty spec, especially the 18" wheels, but I feel the need to give the EV revolution a go. By the time the lease expires there should be a much wider range of other alternatives, and hopefully the competition will drive prices down, including the iPace.

Were there any up front costs? I spoke to them today and still mulling it over.

People who can't afford to buy cars outright can't really grumble about ''poverty spec'' to be fair... beggars (and credit junkie paupers) can't be choosers.

Is that with or without vat? I assume this is with 5k miles.

It would be crazy to pay cash for this car when this mad deal is available. Like I can't see how paying cash could possibly make sense here at all.

Jag will be losing money on this, but I guess they figure putting a few thousand of these on the road and getting people (us) talking about it is worth it in the long run.

Dont’t we have one new poster with a total of one posts saying they’ve taken the deal?

It feels like head line grabbing and ‘sorry, that cars nolonger available’ let down in 5 months to me.
