It's a shame, I already have 4x4. It's very tempting offer for avid camper. Lack of kitchen not a problem.

Apparently, 16th of April was last date to order new California, so it must be end of production stock. I will call Dreamlease on Monday mornig to enquire.

I was specifically after a small -medium BMW or Audi Suv, and nothing else was coming close to that price.

Can’t remember the last time I seen an Audi Q3 or an X1 for sub £400, and compared to the GLA, which is approx £600pm, I felt this was a good enough deal
SUV’s tend to be expensive on a lease, they always have in my view. This is also where I wouod say to chase the deal, not the car. The Q3 was £250 in 2019 but I also haven’t seen decent pricing since. The T-Roc is around that sort of price though. Personally I would take an A4 avant or A5 and save money as an X1 is not worth that money. That’s nearly what I paid for a 7 series a few years back…

Hi,

Some of these BMW deals seem decent. They’ve recently changed so are not quite as good as they were with a few bigger deposits. 48 months and a pcp rather than a lease.

I've put an enquiry in but the looking at the standard options it's pretty poor unless these stock ones have some already specced extras. No parking sensors as standard is a big surprise on something like this for example.

Campers are real deal, mix of options on them. I'm on a phone. VWFS founded. All have rearview cameras.

11 cars total, 5 manufactured, one in UK port, some accepted for production with build week.

I'm waiting for official quote now for particular car with some minimal options: led lights,
heated seats, etc.
They received 19 enquiries over the weekend.

Just off the phone as well, I'm getting the options spec for the ones I'm interested in sent through then will run a quote on the ones I've chosen.

7p/mile excess as well which isn't bad

7p excess is even better, is it with VAT or +VAT? My guy didn't know it yet. I requested 5K miles quote based on low excess mileage of 9p from VW website.

I work for one of the monopolies lol it should be with you for July, it's normally the supplying dealer that holds it up, "we" dont want cars in the compounds, they earn us no money, especially when brand new, pdi is pennies and storage is the same.

If it's a lease, dealer most likely wont touch it, "we" wil pdi it, fit there plates and whatever they want in it and bulk or single car move it directly to you.

I don't do Audi but can't see it being to dissimilar to other brands I work with.
Do you deal with Polestar per chance?
I have a 2 on order (Co. Car - company lease deal), which Polestar are saying is at the UK port. Wondering how long before I get my hands on it!

There was only 11 cars and from what I understand, dealers didn't want to release them to broker. First car I chose, was not released by dealer and broker said he called 6 dealers to find me the car that's available. He said, he will send my finance application and I didn't hear back since then. So I'm not sure if the car was secured or not.

Anyway, I became "expert" on California spec over the weekend. If it works, it's fine, if it doesn't, I will go in my 4x4 for planned extended road trip.

What happened to the Puma , did they end production ?

Duple said:
If time was an option may have been better waiting for Puma production to restart / cars to come through as the “facelift” is on its way and been some good auto deals on them in the past.

Thank you, got a quote back but then saw a review. The car is very asthmatic without even a turbo will struggle to get moving and makes the Mii Electric like a ferrari smile

It’s a good deal compared to what else is available

You can’t get a fiesta size hatchback hybrid auto for that kind of money on a 3 year lease

I got a great quote cheaper than the advertised price but it was gone by the time I got the quote through. The rest of the ones left had too many options bumping the price up over my budget. It's a shame as it would have been a great deal considering where leasing has been at.

I just got email with update. Looks like cars have too many options and they are waiting for update regarding stock availability. My second quote was for one with 4K options, but then came radio silence.

I think broker was surprised by the situation as well.
