Hi all,

This is not necessarily a BMW-specific question, but currently looking at a new car and I really struggle to find a comprehensive "comparison site"-style website for car leasing.

I'm looking for a personal lease and have a couple of cars in mind, including a replacement F21. I seem to find that different lease companies get better deals with different manufacturers or even specific models, so you never know when you are getting the best deal. I have tried ContractHireandLeasing.co.uk, but their search facility is highly annoying as it does not allow sorting by price and the costs are often exclusive of the finance or document fees.

Am I required to search each lease company individually, or is there a place where I can see the best deal on each car on my shortlist?

My price tracking spreadsheet is getting very long as I write down all the different deals out there...

Have a look at

They've currently got the new Audi A4 1.4 TFSI Sport for £2k down and £120/month (5k miles p/a, 24 months). I called them to ask about the S Line version and the 2.0 TFSI S Line is £220/month and the A6 2.0 TDI Ultra S Line is £228/month.

I then requested my settlement figure from BMW which triggered something with the dealer I bought the car from (HF Kirkcaldy). They phoned me and said they'd do a 320i M Sport on PCP for £359 down and £359/month or a 318i Sport for £270 down and £270/month (8k miles p/a, 48 months)

BMW Aberdeen then gave me an offer that wiped £6700 off the list price of a 320i M Sport without me even saying anything.

All pretty unbelievable prices - just need to get my man calculator out! Seems like a good time to be looking for a new car.

Keep an eye on this thread on PistonHeads is my advice.

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f=23&t=1547940&i=2240

I've gone for the A4 deal through Vehicles4Business. £1,274 up front, £360 'admin fee' ( ) followed by 23 monthlies of £141 inc VAT. So c. £5k all in for 2 years.

Gutted to be saying goodbye to the M135i, and especially downgrading to a 1.4T, but my M135i lease is ending in March and I needed something cheaper to replace it with as the wife will be on maternity leave late summer so household income will be taking a hit! I tried to persuade the wife that a 5 door M135i from TRL was the answer but she wasn't having it!

P.S. I'd highly recommend keeping an eye on the Gateway2Lease website. They're who I leased the M135i through and they were excellent to deal with.

I used

" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; after looking on contracthireandleasing.com and getting annoyed with the main dealers advertising but not honouring prices.
Would definitely use again.
