Golf R Estate lease deals

Do you show your number plate in photos?

Because it is quite easy to get the registered keeps address from the reg. It is well know that scum go through forums to get reg numbers to steel cars to order.

Yes. I don't see the problem with it.

That may well be the case. They also use it for cloning cars to drive off without paying for fuel etc, but number plates can still be seen on the road. I would have thought that it would be far easier for a crook to spot a car that he fancies on the road, knowing that it is likely to be local to him, than it would be to go through pictures of cars on forums then have to sieve through them to work out which one will be less effort to liberate.

I've never had a car that's special enough for me to be attached to, so if someone wants to take it, good luck to them.

I know what you mean. I'd just go on Autotrader and look for a car on there, its like a database of number plates for every car with a filter for colours and models rather than using a forum and trying to find the right model in the right colour!

Well I’ve been quotes £3k down and £192 a month, or £2400 down with a higher monthly.

They have confirmed they can delay delivery for when her gtd goes back and it won’t be registered until delivery time.

Paperwork going in later.... decided on white because I like it and I’m tight ha ha

[dubber36]

So the equivalent of £317 per month? Is that a good deal?

 already have a white GTI DSG on the drive that I got on a cheap lease (£107 a month).

Wait wait, only £107 a month?! Please share who that was with?

This could be a good deal, it could be bad. It's almost pointless putting just your monthly figure in.

You need to take your monthly payment, multiply it by the number of months, then add the deposit, and then divide by the number of months, then we know how much you're really paying per month. Then you need to include your mile allowance.

He may have put down a £10000 deposit, be on 5000 miles per year for 5 years. Not such a great deal now. Obviously this probably isn't the case, and it may be a good deal, but we just don't know.

Yes £107 a month Golf GTI DSG... £2400 down. 5k a year but that’s all I do. 2 year deal which I will extend to 3 years for the same monthly (did the same with our GTD). Manual was cheaper (£97)... I wished I hadnt ordered as the DSG box doesn’t work as well with the GTI in my opinion (done a separate thread on that).

We also have a GTD on a lease, £140 a month with £2400 deposit, on 8k miles a year. That goes back after 3 years hence the requirement for a new lease car.

Need more miles on R estate as it will be the main family car.

Lots of websites offer these cheap deals

Google central UK vehicle leasing for stupid cheap deals... you will be amazed at what you can get for your money these days

[I wanted a GTi]

So that's £173 per month over 3 years.

[Darlo]

Yes something like that.

Compared to pcp they make sense for me. Had a GTI on pcp prior to my S3. Put £3k down... paid £290 a month for two years and was in negative equity. Luckily managed to sell private and get £1800 back in my hand. Pcps don’t work for me unfortunately.

If I put £3500 on golf r estate on pcp they come out at £467 a month (according to vw calculator and no discount). £192 is a no brainier for me.

Indium Grey looks great on the R Estate. Keeps its all pretty discrete

Really happy with Indium Grey on mine, think it works really well on the estate.
