Know any car lease comparison sites?

Morning all

I'm looking at leasing a car for a three or four year period. First time I've done this as I usually buy. There are plenty of companies that offer leasing but I can't find a site that compares the deals they offer. Something like gocompare.com but for leasing.

Has anyone found one in the past?

Cheers RT.

    There you go:-

    http://www.contracthireandleasing.com/

    It will give you a good idea of what is around but also check elswhere.
  • Contracthireandleasing.com has indeed a lot of adverts, but I found it quite messy to use.
    I have been using this one lately
    carleaseplanet.co.uk
    where you can also sort by price and you can see the effective monthly price, as some dealers/brokers have bigger deposits and fees and so the actual price appears to be lower but it is not.

    There aren't any 'proper' car leasing comparison sites but the ones mentioned are the closest to - my advice to you is to create a spreadsheet and ring the companies to get quotes. It is arduous work but at the end if the day you will get the best deal as the companies compete for your business.

    Your not kidding. It is arduous work and you also need compare PCP and loan deals to make sure they are not cheaper too.

    The thing is if you put a bit of work in at the start then you start to spot the real deals when they crop up and if it is a really good deal it will only last hours or days.

    If you put the graft in and don't rush you should be awarded but always go for the deal and not the car (ie you will never get a great deal on a BMW or other popular cars).
  • If you want a smile then try here, unfortunately they were more expensive than my dealer quote...

    Looking at a 2014 Qashqai. Any thoughts on this company?

    Of course you can get great deal on BMW or similar brands but not for the cheapest models as these are sold easily without any discounts or good deals anyway.

    CarLease247.com takes some of this arduous work away. If you want the best deal possible on any finance product do the work on the last week of the quarters. That is when dealers will be doing their best deals :T
