observer Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Seems car sales are on the increase; but in this era of austerity, how are folk affording them? Are they all being purchased via credit , and what's this new leasing scheme all about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asperity Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 You pay so much a month for 4 years and at the end of the period you have the choice of returning the car to the dealer, paying the balance owed in full and so buying the car outright or part exchanging for a new car on a similar deal. These deals typically include free servicing and breakdown cover for the lease period, and often insurance deals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freeborn John Posted January 8, 2015 Report Share Posted January 8, 2015 Anyone who has visited a car auction will have been struck by the rows of gleaming recent cars, all repossessed. Miss two payments to some of our household name friendly lenders and your nice new motor is gone off your front, end of. They tend to play that down when you're signing on the dotted line for them...

A fair contribution actually, and not the cheap stuff. BMW is a proud partner of the Motability scheme, they bang out brand new Series 1 Beemers by the hundreds.
