I really don't get this leasing/renting idea....


Why would you want to lease a GTI and not be able to enjoy it properly??

I dont understand this comment..  Why would you not be able to enjoy it properly??

I found I enjoy it more...

Some peolpe are seriously confused about the leasing idea.. let me try simplify it for you.

For arguments sake a GTI cost £30k

If a GTI loses £18k in the first 3 yrs. Regardless of how u finance the car... it is worth £12k after that period.

If you buy the car cash, you spend £30k and everyday you lose a set amount. In this case we are saying £6k per year (£500pm to keep it simple).

If I have lost you upto this point, it may be better you go back to sleep!! Now for leasing...

Again the GTI costs £30k... and will be worth £12k after 3 years. The loss again is £18k. It could be more.. it could be less. This no longer concerns you.

You pay VW the cost of the loss rather than the whole car. So you now pay them £500pm. Its really that simple!


The benefit??? the benefit is you have the £30k in your back... and this gets reduced slowly until the 3 years is up.

Been on Autobuddy to lease a ed35 10k pa no sevice or road tax for a 3dr manual with no paint

£472.22 + vat (£94.44)= £516.66x 36 = £18599.59

plus deposit £1611.34

so total pay after 3 years  = £20211.10

So my ed35 has to be woth more than 6k after 3 years (as i paid just over 26k) to beat that. You don't need me to spell it out for you 

If you don't understand that R32uk never mind going back too sleep you want to go back to school

I paid £229pm on a 6+23 2yr contract for my GTI. Road tax included (as it always is with a lease)

Thats £6641 over 2yrs.

I already have, try and beat it like you claim your way is cheapest,, either way im a winner

Erm..yes of course you are.

I have clearly stated what I payed for my GTI and how, simply to highlight to others one of the possible options (as stated a few pages ago).

If your GTI cost you £100pm... as you say, prove it and let others in on your little secret 

After all.. we are here to help others! or are you just here to gloat??

Because it's not yours.
