Can anyone give me an indication of the sort of deal people are getting on a lease or PCP currently?

Apr depends on what you put down I think. Also depends how friendly you can be with your dealer.

A point to bear in mind though........ and this comes from a dealer friend:

If you strip all the profit out of a sale then you can't be expected to provide top end after-sales. The dealers don't have much margin in the QF as it is and dealers won't touch your car post sale unless Alfa authorise / pay for it. I think 4% plus Alfa contribution was what was on offer at best.

It's a fantastic car but I've seen a couple of owners having trouble post purchase because they bought the cheapest deal on offer. Luckily those problems were manufacturer problems so all was covered, but there is a time lag as a result.
Thank for the reply. How do you know they had problems because they bought the cheapest deal on offer? My experience of leasing an M5 with list price of £80k for £650 per month was very good with all problems sorted right away. I do appreciate that Alfa and BMW are very different animals.

I appreciate the information guys. Are you able to give me any indication of the deals you have managed. And/or the dealers you have had good experiences with?

And another question; I don't suppose you have any idea if it is possible to fit an isofix base and rear facing child seat behind the drivers seat in the driving position of someone around 5'11"?

Can help with both - got mine from Thames, was offered 0% on 50-50 basis - half up front then nothing to pay for 2 years and then the remaining amount. In the end I did 2 years PCP at 0.9% and then balloon. 3 years was 2% and 4 years was 3.6% (or similar nos)

As for Isofix, yes no issues at all. It's incredibly roomy; far more room for wife in front and daughter behind than in our X3
Thank you! I've just popped into an Alfa dealer, had a look at a QV and tested the room for rear facing child seat behind my seating position. It fitted with my seat maybe 1 notch further forward than ideal, but it was perfectly comfortable. The QV really is lovely, and the fact I can fit the twins in means I don't have to go to an M5 or E63s size.

Could you give me an idea of the balloon please? Feel free to PM me if you'd prefer.

Basically, i want to know if i could get a £65kish spec with around £5k down for around £700 per month....

I priced one with Arnold Clark in Paisley back in January this year and with my spec it was coming to £68k.

I was going to put in a £10k deposit and doing 6k miles a year in it. The guaranteed future value they were offering was £24k and they wanted a monthly payment of between £7-800 a month.

I decided I'd wait for a bit and see what the residuals were looking like before I took the plunge. I also didn't get on with Arnold Clark as they wanted me to buy the car from them before they'd even let me test drive it!!

David.
Thanks David.

Anyone else manage better than this? PCH or PCP.

Best I can find is https://www.contracthireandleasing.com/independent... but I assume this is with no options.

How does this compare to what others achieved? Any specifics would be greatly appreciated.
