Probably a good price for one of them, but I believe the lotus electric SUV’s were around this price point a few months ago and they had bigger battery’s, more power and even more “special” Also I don’t know why BMW does this, but none of their decent lease deals are available as personal. Like if I’m happy with the price inc the VAT let me order the damn thing.

Definitely not for me, but take a look at this offer for the Maxus Mifa 9 180kW Luxury [8 Seat] 90kWh 5dr Auto • Estate MPV / People Carrier (5 door)

that reminds me of the car Homer Simpson designed that ruined his long lost brothers car business https://www.rivervaleleasing.co.uk/car-leasing/max...

if id not FTK on the merc EQE i'd have been on this; the 1+35 looks reasonably good value for sensible miles too

Still not heard anything about the id buzz deal from central. Its been nearly 2 weeks now since they said vw would be in contact. Has anyone else heard anything?
Nope not yet, but the current Buzz Cargo deal, which is pretty much identical, suggests that VW aren't looking to renege on it. Why would VW contact us directly if they were going to cancel - why not just tell the broker to do it? I think the non van Buzz's are still dealt with by VW Commercial and perhaps the supplying dealer might not be able to cope with the volume?
Like everybody else, I obviously have no idea though

Same here, I have wondered for a while and I'm happy to pay the VAT. rich_miller7 said:

Doesn't look too much worse than the vast majority of Ev to my eyes, they're mostly all hideous.https://www.rivervaleleasing.co.uk/car-leasing/max...

It’ll be Alphabet, who are business only. I can only assume it’s to protect retail sales (they’re part of the BMW group)
Not quite true, Alphabet offer personal contract hire.MattyD803 said:
Yes, i've had two PCH leases via Alphabet....but in both instances I had to provide a 'cover letter' on my business headed paper (albeit this could have easily been fictitious) which I understood to be an artificial 'hurdle' put in place to avoid floods of PCH applications and hence (as eluded to above), protect the BMW retail side. Both were fantastic deals at the time and hence worth the effort.

My new Lexus NX 450h is arriving next week. Very excited. £11k over the two years - 22%
I got mine last week its nice car, insurance was a nightmare to sort out, its the latest model so I thought had all the security fixes but for some reason loads of places wouldn't insure it, where as NX450h+ registered earlier in 2024 were fine. The comparison sites quote but when you click through to go to the insurer site its then declined. I'm nearly 50, max no claims, clean licence, live nice area car on drive but still ended up being thick end of a couple of grand to insure. I'm within the M25 though so may be that's the issue.Edited by PostHeads123 on Friday 29th November 10:52
The Lexus arrives tomorrow, so will post some pictures if and when the sun ever comes out!
I just returned my Nissan Leaf 62kwh. I had it on a two year lease, and extended by a further two years. Rentals were down to £140 pm by the end!
