    Thanks, think I will get a loan out and buy a car outright.
    Value for money wise, is it best to get a brand new car, or a car a couple of years old where the high depreciation has taken place?

    Don't really want to buy a car 5 years or older because that's what I did last time and I've had endless problems with it!

    Cheers
    KIA come with a 7 year warranty so if you buy one that is 2 or 3 years old that has lost the bulk of the depreciation then you still get the remainder of the manufacturer warranty with it.

    6k over 3 years with nothing to show at the end of it? Hardly a 'deal' imo.

    It may not be a 'deal', but a 'lease deal' it is.

    Compare it to Hondas PCP offers and it's practically a bargain.
