I don't have anything on finance ever. So I would be 4 grand better off than your equation. My philosophy is pay for it cash run it or ten years and flog it.
Yes thats true but after you have paid off your van its yours whilst leasing at the end of the lease you pay another up front cost and start again with another new van then your monthly payments so give us all the story.
Hi Alex. It depends which lease type you go for, but the fact is that leasing enables people to drive brand-new vans, cars or pickup trucks for a fraction of the cost of buying one outright. It's the difference between paying £20k for a new van (or borrowing £20k) and only paying for 3 years use of it (which usually works out to well under half the value of the vehicle). Give us a call if you'd like to discuss leasing further - 01442 838195. Thanks.
Ah yes let's trust the lease company to tell us if we should buy a brand new van through them and pour money away. Old vans can be great, same with cars, use your brain and put money away to cover the odd repair, look after the thing and you'll be fine in the long run! You've compared this to financing a used van, how about comparing it to actually just paying cash? Do people do that anymore or is everyone just up to their eyeballs in debt?
Bout my 4 year old berlingo with 25k miles used for £11k. 3 years later at 65k miles sold it for £8k. Smart people by a good quality used vehicle. Leasing also has hidden return charges for any damage that isn't fair wear and tear. My mate got stung for £1800 for new carpets and new key (as spring was broke in key). Don't let these salesmen sell you for a shiny new van 😅
