Anyone currently leasing or looking to lease an M340i?

I'm thinking of getting rid of my F31 335d and dropping into an M340i touring.

Got a test drive booked on Saturday. I know the Franchise director at Sytner so he may be able to get me a reasonable PCP deal but not sure yet.

Still exploring leasing options. Currently forking out £350 a month for a loan to pay off the rest of my 335d which I purchased from leaseplan a few years back.

I think it would still fetch a reasonable amount on the used market so I could put down the leftovers as a deposit on a lease.

Cheers!

According to what car leasing they are about £425 plus vat per month with £1250 down plus vat. That’s 2 years and 8k pa.

Re. PCP, I'd check out TRL's deals for certain as he's usually the most competitive around.

Ok thanks, that's better than I thought but would need longer than 2 years probably and more mileage - am waiting for Synergy to get back to me currently.

It's 8k per year, it's also a 4 year deal which won't suit some...

Just got an email from them this morning. 2 year deal is £326p/m and 3 year is £299p/m. Taking orders for June delivery no problem. 3 year still tempting. Just not convinced yet since it's the outgoing model. I've added it to my list of options.

Although I've never leased before, I'm certainly open to idea and have followed this thread trying to learn a bit more.

My workplace has just introduced a salary sacrifice scheme for leased electric vehicles. On the face of it the prices seem very good, and lots of people in the office are talking about it. I thought I'd gauge the opinion of the experts on here though.

So taking a random example of a Peugeot e-2008 GT.

The scheme / monthly cost includes:

Servicing & Maintenance
Small Relief Car if main car is in for warranty work etc.
Insurance for me and my partner
Tyres (not including winter tyres)
Annual Road Fund (Not applicable on Electric I guess)
Roadside Assistance


Car Peugeot 2008 136 GT Auto
No options selected (GT has pretty much everything as standard)
P11d Value: £37,720
No initial payment
24 month term
7500 miles per annum

Net Monthly Cost to me: £228

What are peoples thoughts on this example deal?

Sounds good. Have you also accounted for the petrol you won't need to buy?

Just a note that this money will probably not go towards your salary for pension any more.

The petrol saving would also be significant, I was more concerned whether the lease itself was good value.

We can plug in at work, but the electricity is only slightly cheaper than at home.

The pension thing is interesting, but as I'm on a final salary scheme I guess it doesn't matter.

Anyone seen the A5 sportback deals on blue chilli, my leaseloco garage is showing 245 on 9+23 5k.

This is for a 35 tfsi s line auto. Factory order so I assume facelifted. Seems decent.

But... the audi configurator doesn't seem to have a 35 tfsi so wondering whether it's the audi site or the lease site that's out of date?

After an a5 sportback or a6 if anyone has spotted anything else
Will be run out stock, not 2020/21 model year. They should have gone live Monday of this week. No idea if Audi are going to do deals on it as they are the A4 and A6 but a dealer told me last week the 5 is a volume seller so they may well do. More engines to come in around six months, they say.

What happened to golf deals that brokers were talking about last week? Not seeing anything worth taking about.

Thanks to all three of you who replied on the audi.

I'm good until mid July so I'll hold back a bit and see whether any facelift deals come through. Keeping an eye on a6 as well so let's see if there's much activity as the year moves to a close...

Does anyone have an idea if the GTI will be included in these deals?

Sorry, should've been more clear, that is for the GTI. I'm not sure about the other trim levels.

Deals on the 4 Series, but nothing exciting compared to the cheap deals in December.

i'd take that with a pinch of salt. They've probably been assured by their dealer contact but in all honesty dealers don't know st in advance. The funder/manufacturer likes to keep them in the dark so they don't do anything stupid to delay a sale ("it's going to be lots cheaper next month!"), where in that time the customer might go and buy something else or never come back.

Anyone leased a Kia? If so did you manage to only service once or should I just pay the extra for maintenance. Seems to be £319 for 2 services or I’m £15 per month for maintained. It’s only a 2 year deal. Cheers for any advice

I haven’t serviced my Arona yet as it’s long life, but spoilt by that
I've just signed a Sportage lease for my wife with Stoneacre Kia Lincoln. Servicing was quoted (and I've taken it) at £270 for the 3 services it'll require as part of my 3 year lease. £90 each seemed reasonable enough. Note though that this is not "fully maintained", I didn't ask for a price for that to be honest.

Just signed up the missus to a Mini Hatchback 1.5 petrol (136bhp) Cooper Classic II.

8 fixed spec cars are/were available in either White Silver, Starlight Blue or Melting Silver.

5dr, 7sp DCT (normally £1400), Metallic Paint (normally £525), Nav Pack (normally £900), Comfort Pack (normally £900), Black roof and Mirrors.

9+23 £180.52 (+£199 admin fee)
5k miles pa

Not a bad deal for second car duties I thought, and she’s very happy because she wanted a mini and an auto. Most of the ‘cheap’ deals right now seem to be manuals.
