Might be worth a read if any of you have struck a lease deal.

Some classic toys out of pram / dummy spitting happening on the r forum.... :grin:

I can imagine. If it sounds to good to be true.......

Exactly... It's certainly a kick in the teeth for anyone that had one ordered on what they thought was a genuine 'personal' lease and the early adopters who's cars were financed via independent brokers still have cars delivered/being delivered, seems the latest round of insanely cheap deals are all financed via VWFS and they've pulled the plug on the personal leases...

Do you want a whack as well?? :P
-
Leaseyoufnextcar.com have pulled personal lease already on the R and taken the mileage on the GTD down to 5k pa! Like you'd own a diesel to do 5k miles a year.
-
luckily all this isn't a spanner in the works for me, my golf R is still winging its way to me thank god, and hopefully sooner with all these cancelled orders!
-
When I saw the deals available on the new R my immediate thought was "they're going to sell loads of those and the residuals won't be as good as they hope they'll be" most of the deals were at 5k miles a year and if you upped it to 10k the price shot right up, there was a few people who saw a loophole where the excess mileage charges on a 5k deal were still so much cheaper than going for a higher mileage one.
-
Absolutely right on that mate, if you took a 5k mile deal and doubled the milage, it would only cost 300/year to pay excess milage charge. Whereas the 10k miles quotes were way way way more than that per year
-
£270 a month with 10k on a personal contract for me,
-
well thats not too bad then! what spec? and will it be going through or be pulled?

You boys in the know - is it a flat £1k deposit across most of the offers, regardless of mileage limits etc?

pete its normally 6 monthly payments as Depo. for me its 1240 +vat.
for Darren I would have thought it will be 1620 including vat
-
Nope £500 + vat for deposit, I've got it in an email but won't be going for it for the simple reason a need a car running the devils fuel :innocent: would love the R but just could. Not live with it day to day.
I'll be going for the GTD once things settle down with moving from my house to temp accommodation. I'll then put my order in and hopefully it'll be here for when I move to my new house :happy2:
Speak to Patrick at Contractcars.com and see what he can do for you? I think I may have been the last of the personal contract so may be one left has I won't be taking it :chicken:

The deals I saw were about £1600 ish inc vat iirc. Fantastic car and he deals are/were superb, just a shame I do 20k miles a year and need a tractor!
