There are some good deals around on the Arona at the moment. My daughter ordered a 1.0TSI 115bhp DSG SE Technology from Stoneacre earlier this month. Including free metallic paint and a spare wheel it was £1k up front and 35 x £167 for 8k Miles pa and no fees. Equates to £190 per month overall.

CVL are another good source if you're looking for an Arona @Alictait. It's been posted before but a while ago.
It seems dealers are matching these sort of prices too with no fees.

Fleetprices have this on a 10k 9+23 £137.3 for a total of just about £4,400.

I'm looking at the DSG 115 SE Tech. the 9+23 and 3+23 are pretty much the same total cost for 10k miles at about £4,780.

I was talking about the Technology model. Don’t forget Fleetprices charge a £298.80 processing fee which needs to be added on to your “total cost” figures. That brings the Tech model to around £5081 or £211 per month overall.

I was just offering an alternative. My figures are for the SE Tech DSG on 10k not 8k. I think on 8k it's all much of a muchness.

Normally with VW, Seat and Skoda 8k miles pa is the cheapest option and then pay the additional mileage if necessary. On the Arona an extra 2k miles only equates to £6 per month including vat.

What happens if you cancel a built to order lease car before it arrives ? I have to have a car for when my the company car goes back, my second choice of car would arrive by that date if I ordered it next week, but I'm hoping my first choice comes avaliable and if it did I would want to cancel my order and switch. Looking through the quotes I've had I see nothing mentioned about canceling.

Typically you would lose just your admin fee but always ask or check on the website.
I canncelled a Golf R lease when the facelift was announced and i just lost my 299 fee.

[cainam]

Seat Leon ST Cupra 300 4drive DSG

Options

Adaptive cruise control
Winter pack
Panoramic sunroof
Connectivity plus keyless entry
Seat sound
Metallic paint
extended warranty to 4 years

3+47 8000 mpa through Arval no fees

non maintained £332.82 excess 5.28p
maintained 364.82 excess 10.92p

Not that keen on 4 years but want to add a lot of options which are discounted quite a bit.

You most likely lose your fee (might not happen if you sign for another car through same broker and/or if they're reasonable).

You only commit to the agreement when you've signed for it on delivery, and after the cooling off period has elapsed (a week?).

Cheers my second choice was an A4 1.4T sline, quote was from main dealer no admin fee, will give them a call Monday.

When leasing how honest are dealers with lead times ? The dealer quoted me 12-13 wks but others posted that is not realistic on this model, when I pushed the dealer on this he said he had taken 4 orders for same model this week and it was still 12-13 weeks. What I'm getting at is I understand why they may fib if I'm buying out right but if a lease are they that bothered they would tell porkies ?

Thanks

Three reasons why this isn't a good deal:

1. 4 years (!) - our usual warnings about servicing costs, consumables, and even warranty issues.
2. its a very specific model of car (St, 4wd, dsg).
3. you listed lots of extras, are they cost options? so loading yourself up with something the owner benefits from when they auction it after 4 years.

Alternative deals always worth looking at and looks like most brokers are about the same on the Arona SE Tech DSG when you factor extra mileage @ approx 4ppm inc.vat.

Like @Mjay36 we went direct to a dealer to save fees and we’ve signed up for around £4650 total for a 6k pa contract.

When I cancelled my S4 last year I was charged £360 by CVL. This was due to Audi and is stated in the contract when you sign up. Best to have a read of that. There was the fee as well, but as I placed another order through CVL I didn’t have to pay another fee.

My broker allowed me to transfer their fee to a Karoq when I cancelled a Leon so all good although I was lucky they were ALSO the cheapest on the Skoda... Leasehub.

A company called yourcarpro or leasecarpro keeps popping up on Facebook offering multiple good deal - focus, fiesta, kia’s. All no deposit, low rentals.

They have a messenger based automated service that I tried to get an actual price.

Kia Optima wagon 1.7 two spec levels to choose from, diesel manual only. Few colours.

Base spec, 6k miles - 199£ per month no deposit & 199 admin.

I upped spec & miles to 25k / annum. 346£ & 199 admin on 36 months.

Seems legit so thought I’d share.

Can’t see the exact deal on their actual website tho....

It is worth asking for both options as on my Alltrack 2 years ago it worked out cheaper to take the 5kPA option and pay the excess, whereas I had a quote of 5kPA and 8kPA recently on my bargain Tiguan and took the 8kPA option as the monthly diference was tiny.

For those who wonder what the point of a 5kPA lease is, I have 10600 miles on my Passsat and it is going back next month.

I expect the new car will do more mileage.

Thanks for your quick reply, I have a SLI number which I think is used to track the build but i havnt been given the postcode of the ordering dealer so I cant track the build, Did you get all this info when you placed the order?. I have asked my broker for this info but he says he hasnt received it yet. Can I ask what date you ordered your car also?

I didn't have it either and I just used the brokers postcode. Or I might have chosen the option for company car. I can't remember but I successfully tracked without that dealers postcode. Good luck.

I ordered mine through 1st Choice.
Got the SLI number and dealer postcode sent through.
After some trial and error, got it to work as a company car. I Googled the postcode given (ST4 4DD) and it turned out to be Stoke Audi. In the company name part, I typed in Swansway and it came up. I ordered on 24th Jan and my build week is currently showing as 9th April. Hope this helps.

I intend going for maintenance if at the price stated on previous comment - I read somewhere the first service is a killer price!

Audi services are quite expensive generally because they seem to charge about £30/litre for oil. When I had my RS5 and RS4 serviced I would ask them for a price without oil and supply my own. Those two cars took about 10l which could be had off eBay for £60 and Audi were trying to charge £300. I never paid more than about £250 for a service on either of those if memory serves but the quotes always started with a 4 or 5.

Do they not do a fixed price service on the smaller engines? I’m sure I’ve seen something on their website before.

Cheaper and with tech pack. Im keeping my eye on these prices and the VW Areton 2.0 dsg 190 r line which is about another 20 a month.

[PostHeads123]

Looks expensive I had £1299 and £216 a month 6+23 on 8k for s-line version, not sure if black ed worth the extra.

[havoc]

Can anyone recommend a good broker for a small company fleet which is looking to go all-hybrid, please?

Our existing broker (from the previous set of leases nearly 4 years ago) is being very tardy, Arval won't deal with me direct, and I'm having trouble with a couple of mfr-backed financiers as we're a fairly new company (insolvency / rebirth 3 years ago due to a toxic issue with a sister company, rather than any underlying problems with ours...but if you've not got 3 sets of signed Fin'l Statements then some lenders don't want to know).

From reading previous pages looks like we're almost out-of-time on 330e / C350e, and have missed the boat on the Golf GTE already...which leaves a lot of boredom and soulless white-goods out there!

Agree but the mrs limes the look of the black edition and wants the vc bigger screen etc. Im sure you understand there is no point me disagreeing. Its a back up if a golf gti or new polo gti deal doesnt come along. Also keeping my eye out for another round of VW Areton deals as they are not selling well at all so hopeful they might throw a few hundred to the lease market at a price similar to a few months ago
