Phone contracts vs. Car contract hire

[ArnieVXR]

Yes - I'm bored and it's lunchtime.

So for the not far off the monthly price of a iPhone 6 Plus on a 20GB data contract from O2(£68) you could have...

...a new Skoda Octavia Estate 2.0TDi 4x4 (£84.00)

Okay so the upfront on the phone is £30, whereas the car is £2000 and you'll be limited to 5,000 miles pa, but still.

That's a great deal! Although the quoted amounts are for business users, so non-VAT registered buyers will need to add 20% to the payments.

The £84 was with VAT. The deposit of £2000 is plus VAT.

I'd say the mobile was a bargain, if the mileage is unlimited.

BTW, if you take the £2k into account, then the car works out at £153 per month, which make the comparison non-existent.
