So sell your current car, bank the money and lease the new one. Seems good to me.
At the end of the term you still have your cash in the bank unless you've spunked it on drugs and hookers.
Simples!
So say you say sell your Ed30 for 10k, bank it, then lease a Golf R for a cost of £5500 over the two years, oh and the £1100 deposit out of your 10k budget in the small print...and this will be a bare bones spec car with a stick shifter..... No options on it...
Hmmm ..
Your then gonna have £3850 to buy another good quality replacement??
I know the R is good, I'd rather buy it with a private loan from the bank and do the repayments that way personally.
But that's the way I would go about it. I wouldn't wanna give that sort of car up.
