At the start of 2024 it is estimated that 1.6m people in the UK lease a car, that means roughly 1 in 4 new cars are bought on a lease.
A leased car or van is provided with a manufacturer warranty usually for the lease term, so there is peace of mind, road tax is usually included, and critically you are not exposed to the costs associated with depreciation. A car may typically depreciate by over 50% in the first three years.
There is a great deal of choice out there with most manufacturers and models available, typically over terms of 1 to 5 years, though there are some shorter term deals available for less than a year.
Often you do not need to put down a deposit, and sometimes vehicles are available on special off or in stock, so you do not need to wait months for delivery.
Popular current vehicles include the Polestar 4 for less than £431 / m , the Golf R amazing value at less than £300 and available now. Great family vehicles are also available like the ever popular Qashqai at £221 /m.
Turning to Vans, the Transit Multicab looks great value as does the Citroen Dispatch.
