Car leasing with very low miles per year
Comments

If I was only doing 2,000 miles a year and wanted something fancy, I'd be looking at something about 10-15 years old that's regarded as a 'gas guzzler' - fuel costs will be nothing compared to what you save on depreciation/leasing.
As an extreme example, you can lease a Jaguar XJ for about £500/month, or you can buy a 10 year old one outright for £7k, or 14 months payments.
Even more extreme, you can get a 1998 Rolls Royce Silver Spurr (6.8lire) for £5k, though the maintenance for it will be eye watering.0 -
You want a lease a car that you will only do average 166 miles a month?
You can hire prestige cars, may be cheaper."Dream World" by The B Sharps....describes a lot of the posts in the Loans and Mortgage sections !!!0 -
Addison Lee and Uber offer decent prestige cars for not much more than their normal service.
If your in an area with coverage.
Or try one of the supercar/prestige car clubs.0 -
I got mine through lease4less.org.uk and spoke to Tony there. Cant fault mine, delivery date got pushed back 3-4 months at one point but after some messing around their end they managed to get it me less than a week after the original delivery date.I am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a mortgage adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

Yeah i also tried to get a low mileage <5,000 a year car - didn't go very well.
FYI Ive heard lingscars has been literally blacklisted from all major funders (so a competitor said...) so I dunno...just dont trust em!
Goodluck (and lemme know if you find a company that does do sub 5k)0
