leasing a volvo s80, any thoughts

epz_2

I have just had my car die after blowing many thousands of pounds on it in maintenance, so rather than get suckered in again i looked for a lease or car with fixed price maintenance.

Anyway i have negotiated a 3 +23 payments of £195 for a 2 year lease of a one year old volvo S80 including tyres, maintenance and tax.

Does anyone have any thoughts as i am feeling pretty chuffed limiting my expenses but other's have been more circumspect st the idea of a lease.

Also any opinions on the S80, particularly the 2.4d se 164bhp model.

How many miles does it cover you for?

Contract Hire costs have rocketed recently (although maybe will be less affected for 'nearly new' leases)

Deal is probably OK and who cares about the car even it only scores 3 stars on What Car have a read of some of the customer reviews. But at the end of the day it will get you from A to B in reasonable comfort. The fact you have maintenance is pretty good.

Go for it assuming you are convinced you will still have an income throughout the period.
