Went for the same car but over 3 years as I had to add a few extras - can’t exist without heated seats and LED lights these days!

When are they quoting delivery? My original September date has now gone back to late November.
It was 16 weeks from order, so should be around the start of October hopefully - although I haven't had any updates from the lease company yet.

I would disagree with your thresholds if using the RRP.

I'd say 18%-22%ish is a decent deal depending on the make/model/spec.
Under 18% is where the really awesome deals kick in and they've not been that uncommon really.

Last 3 deals I've had over 2 years:

V90 R Design, May 2018 - 16.4%
Pug 5008 GT Line, Nov 2017- 18.6%
Audi A4 Avant Sport, June 2016 - 16.9%
Where did you get these? Were they the full amortised price over the 2 years?
Yes full amortised over 2 years including VAT. Volvo for example is £6880 over 2 years/8k vs £42k list price including options. (£215/month, 9+23). Peugeot was £190/month on 9+23 and A4 Avant was £168 on 6+23. I know it's not technically the best 'deal', but the A4s were stupendously cheap.

The V90 (and S90) deals were widely discussed on here in the last thread and pushed out heavily by brokers. Got mine direct from Volvo Stoneacre.

The Pug also came from a tip off on here but was advertised on broker's website - was lucky to get one of a small batch that were available to order prior to it's launch, though a similar deal did come back on factory orders I believe. The Audi A4 deals at the time were also widely available and a fair few on here ended up in them.

Surely the difference here is whether you're using RRP or discounted pricing?

Exactly my point. If you're using RRP, you want to be looking at sub-18% for an 'awesome' deal. Around 20% is decent, not amazing. Obviously it all depends on the car e.g. an M5 at 20% would be amazing

Went into VW dealership to have a look at Arteon.
Sales guy said build, would start week 38 and be ready week 43, which I believe is October, would've suited me fine.
Just spoke to lease broker for the deal I was looking at and he is now being told it looks like November.

Shame I've had to decline the offer.

Thanks so much. Seem like brilliant deals. I probably would have grabbed that V90 deal if I was looking at the time. New to the lease game but wish so much I would have seen this thread about a month ago. There seems to be nothing around at the moment deal wise (for the cars I'm looking for!) Thanks for the info though, really appreciate it.

I just ordered one and was told 5-6 months.

Same, though I got what would be classed as a 'good' or maybe even 'very good' (around 21% list price on a 2 year 10K) deal on my Arteon (still very much available as advertised on leasing.com), so I'm happy (apart from the wait).

As a general point, my contact at a leasing company told me that most manufacturers start offering their best deals just after the beginning of each quarter, so it might be worth hanging around a week or two for some deals to emerge (we're just a couple of weeks into this quarter).

Thank you. I had heard the same. Looking at either Touran and Kodiaq (family needs!) but nothing on either of them at the moment. Hoping for some to come onto a campaign or something relatively soon!

It's the art of chasing good deals. What you could do, is go to leasing.com and setup alerts on particular cars. Drill down to wanted configuration and setup alerts. You will get emails (daily or different frequency you can choose) and you may notice if there's a deal on a car you're interested. And read this thread or check what car leasing part website. There are some one-off deals that never repeat. And there are promotions with more cars. You have to be quick.

That's great, thank you. I'll go ahead do all of that and sit tight. Definitely checking on this site a lot. Thank you!

I was looking at those too - three children, though now old enough not to need child seats - but was very pleasantly surprised by how practical the Arteon is. Big practical boot, limo like legroom in the back, and very good elbow room too.

We've got the 3 but one is a baby so having the extra seats helps in the back so they aren't all squashed together.

If it was the Neva one we did a factory order for May back in November, I think it was when they were first on.

Thats why I dont work off percentages!

My S5 is about 25%. But I couldn't have owned one depreciation wise for that when I ordered the car (discounts were small compared to now) and all other comparable cars were a lot dearer. If it had been a normal A4 with a 2 litre engine it wouldn't have been a good deal at 25%.

That's pretty good - looks very similar to the last good batch of R Estate deals. I'd jump on one of those if anyone wants a quick estate. I'm a year in on mine and have no idea what I'm going to replace it with next year for similar money.
Likewise, I'm just going to try and get a 12 month extension....

How does one go about getting these extensions?

I spoke to Graham at Hub Leasing and he said it's not likely and that they'll only extend if you have a VAG group car on order. But others on here report to have done it and it might be my best option at the moment.

I had the 430D GC for 2 years which went back recently and fancy a petrol this time round.

Thanks a lot for the spreadsheet. That’s massively helpful. Glad to see there’s another 4 Series fan!

That was the best I could find on Leasing.com too, slightly out of my ideal budget of £300 a month though.
