Lease prices are based on expected residuals taking into account the discounts the leasing companies get off the car's list price.
Hence the typical sleep type saloon cars are quite competitive to lease as the manufacturers good them out at massively discounted prices.
That's why some expensive sounding cars are around the same price or even less than more mundane cars.
Leasing is primarilarly (sp?) aimed at company car schemes where companies will want their junior execs turning up with cars that make them look successful and acceptable to their corporate bore compatriots and clients.
My company does a similar salary sacrifice scheme through Zenith and it's just under £400 a month for a bare bones GTD, fully insured, maintained etc.
