Hello all, I am self employed, and considering buy/leasing a new car. I would like to speak with a few leasing firms to discuss the options and costs that they can offer. Can anyone recommend some good car leasing firms? Many thanks.

i thought about this and realised not only will there be the obvious cost of providing the vehicle in the first place (lease plan cost, hire purchase cost etc) but then you're also getting hit by the income tax you'd have to pay also.

so effectively, your company (ie. your income) is getting hit twice - am i right in my conclusions?

I was under the impression that the OP asked for good leasing companies rather than the cheapest.

Thanks for the links. Some good deals to be had at first glance. Just a thought, does any firm arrange leasing on pre-leased/ non new cars, so that I could have a better car, but with a few miles on the clock already but at a lower price than new?

Good value for money & great back up services.

Therefore, best of both worlds.

Or failing that, let me know precisely what you're looking for and i'll get some quotes for you from a few brokers that I deal with.

Thanks escargot, I'm after a decent family estate. I need to move from 2 doors to 4 doors, and simply like estate car profiles with the extra space. The looks of an Audi Avant A4 Sportsline, would be nice, though the badge isn't worth paying twice that of a Volvo V50 to me (which from my searching so far is the car of choice). I'm looking for a good balance between a quality good looking car and vfm. My mileage will be low, sub 12k per year.

Thanks again to everyone who's given advice. Quite exciting to be looking at new cars opposed to three year old models.

No probs Cliff. What sort of budget have you got? What annual mileage will you be doing?
