Yes, they are extremely expensive ways to drive brand new cars.
It strikes me from your numerous posts that you are very consumed by the idea of having a new shiny car, but looking at extremely expensive ways due to lack of disposable funds.

What I saw was that subscriptions were costing about £500 a month for cars that would be around £300 a month on PCP lease finance.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages, student & coronavirus Boards, money saving boards.
