    Why can't advanced payments be set for the year?, surely this would cut down on the paperwork generated every three months
    Because models change for most manufacturers throughout the year. Prices vary because of production costs, targets being met by manufacturers etc.

    The A P also varies because they reflect the residual value of the vehicle at the end of the lease. On new models and facelift versions, I believe this is predicted by various bodies in the motor trade, and my guess is that those predictions and re-evaluations come out at various times thru the year.
    I try not to get too stressed out on the forum. I won't argue, i'll just leave a thread if you don't like what I say. :)
