Very interested in ordering a 208 hatchback. Anyone ordered? How was the service? And how long did it take? Do you think you are getting a good deal?

I'd be very surprised if their lease deals offer any sort of competitive edge over similar companies. Their 120 gram CO2 emission limit seems very bizarre also and pretty much consigns you to low powered engines.

An Audi A1 3 Door Hatch 1.4 TFSI 125 S Line is 290 a month, that's 7 grand in 2 years, for an average car. :thumbdown

I find that their lease deals are very competitive indeed, especially when you see that it includes all servicing even including new tyres! Insurance as well, probably not a big deal for most of you but as a youngster with a write off to my name, I'm currently paying £95 a month for insurance on a Focus...It certainly doesn't seem any more expensive than deals on new cars that I've seen, especially with no deposit. Plus, you're paying it BEFORE you pay any tax or NI, so you're saving a couple of quid on that. I'm considering it myself in the future, who knows though. I'm that guy who has a different (usually shitty) car every year so a 3+ year agreement might be too big a jump for me :left:

Their low CO2 limit is the whole point of the thing tbh, I imagine RM will be getting some sort of grant for promoting low CO2 usage.

Just be careful when you hand it back, big charges on damage to body and wheels etc! Will allow some wear and tear but it's not a lot!

I worry about this! I've had a few cars in my time and never ever damaged one but I can just see the one time I lease one being the time I put a big dent in it..

But if it is insured then surely if you damage the car the insurance will cover it as long as you declare it?
