Best Lease Car Deals Available? (Vol 10)

[Blown2CV]

i'm not even interested in EV deals let alone EV off topic bks.

It's not off topic if it's a good leasing deal, though. Why do those who are anti EV have to tell everybody? Anybody'd think you are like vegans....

Go cry into a tank of petrol then. This is about lease deals, no matter the powertrain - i'm sure there are some parts of PH where you can jack off about petrol all you want.

Both our cars are EVs and have been since 2020. Outlining the cost of charging isn’t related to leasing. Should we all share our local petrol and diesel forecourt prices?

I would suggest you download Zapmap and it will let you the cost of all public chargers in the UK and their status.

petulant child response. It's bad enough going off topic but to go off topic about EVs is even worse.

Just came across these Puma deals as we re starting to look at new cars as our electric countryman goes back in Jan. Have I got a summary right in that

- deals initially were £139 on a 1+23 for select spec cars in stock. Premium and wall box also available at relatively low extra per month
- stock is now gone but some are offering similar deals on new factory order. I d be happy with that so gonna ring round Hartwell, Think Ford, Hendy and DM Keith
Are there any other retailer groups that people have managed to get to price match? Group1 are more local to me.
- The Octopus credit is only for delivery by yr end which is not certain if ordering now

Anything else I’ve missed? Or has anyone seen other decent EV deals below £180 (not the Dacia as range is appalling 😂)

I was talking to a fleet manager at a Ford dealership earlier this week. He said the RV has gone down a little on the Puma (probably due to how many have been ordered!), so the monthly may move upwards a touch.

The wall box is only for deliveries before the end of this year at the moment. Although he did say that he knows a few Ford dealer groups have asked the question to Ford about honouring the wall box for deliveries that fall into next year. So don't bank on it, but they should know in the coming weeks.

Ok, thanks. All docs were signed off last Friday and 'at dealer' is still showing red on the site. I might chase them in the AM if dont hear today, it's lack of my availability i'm most concerned with.

Do you mean your availability for delivery? We were told initially end of Sep for latest delivery but then managed to agree first week of October. Confirmed a date and then Polestar reached out directly to confirm the date and also if we wanted to take delivery earlier as they had it ready but obviously declined. Pretty smooth in all honesty and I'd just call them to advise. Note that delivery was initially going to be made to the applicant but they're not around so we switched to someone else that'll be around on the day to collect and this was done via Carparison rather than Polestar.

What does RV mean?

Residual value I assume. I also heard the same from DM Keith, hence affecting the lease value as they adjust the monthlies accordingly.

Correct.

So if the RV (the cars value) drops by £500, then the monthly payments will go up to cover that difference*

• assuming neither the manufacturer or dealer gives an extra £500 discount

Anyone who's bagged a Polestar 4 with Carparison can give me any idea how long it was between finance docs going back and being verified to being given a delivery date... seems to be dragging here and im not the most patient, lol

Pretty quick in my experience. There were quite a few docs etc to sign but it took all of a week, maybe two, to get the delivery date from the point of being quoted. Once the finance arrangements were all sorted, had an email from Polestar with the delivery date set (and they also suggested dropping earlier but we can't as sending the old lease back on a particular day).

We have one on order for work, I dont need it really til end of October but they said it must be completed and delivered in September. I signed the agreement early last week and have heard nothing since from the leaseco, but I have had Polestar welcome emails

Guys, 286£ a month with one months deposit for Toyota bz4x, 3 year lease, 6k miles - is this a good deal?

Trying to decide between this and the Puma Gen E for 222£ a month.

Please let me know if you find anything, my son is after one of these and seems to be around £150 is the cheapest at the moment, with 3 months upfront.

The Toyota has a much bigger battery and range.
Does your puma quote include the charger install, servicing and electricity credit?
If so the figures may work out better for the Puma.

Need to have a fleet of at least 5 other vehicles. I'd enquired previously and said smaller businesses are higher risk.

Literally insane rates on the Lotus - if your business can take advantage of them. This is Lotus clearly dumping stock. It will decimate already poor residuals.

If these float your boat, I can't see a better deal coming along anytime soon.
