  • Ok, Say your on a 36 month lease and settle after 12, most leasing companies will want some form of payment in respect of the 24 remaining months. PCP for example would want 50% of the outstanding rentals due, plus any damage to the vehicle.

    Leasing always look cheaper but can you walk away from it and if so at what cost?

    Oh, I get you now.

    Yeah, of course if you sign for a 36 month lease you're going to be hit if you give it up early. I was thinking more along the lines of a 12 month lease; he'll pay a little more for it, but if it's a lucrative contract, with no stability following, then it may be worth it.
