20ks worth of metal for 130 a month is insane. I guess this relates to the car subprime crash that many are predicting as there is no way a passat is worth 75% of its RRP after 3 years.

You probably could if you are quick and check very often.
right now you can get a A4 1.4 S line, a Volvo V40 or a tiguan all for around £130 + VAT and only 2k + vat down.

Keep an eye on the Pistonheads thread.
Some mention of the Alltrack here https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f;=255&t;=1547940&i;=4020 although they say 120 and I think that was including Vat!
These deals might have been once in a lifetime. Market conditions just conspired at a certain time. Plenty of mentally cheap Golf R deals around periodically. Gotta be quick off the mark though.

Those lease deals you mentioned are for 5k miles per annum though, if you change it to 10k the monthly payment more than doubles. Also £2000 + VAT deposit so you are talking about £265 a month for 5k miles per year.

always thought leasing cars was for chavs/idiots but that is amazing. surely someone is losing a lot of money somewhere along that line
Would it be impossible to get a car on a lease if you have no credit history or a low score. I have never had a credit card in my life. Just spend what I earn and live within my means so to speak.
But times come for me to get a set of wheels, what's better in terms of deposit for a car, put down a big deposit to lessen monthly payments and shorten the leases or small deposit and take out a longer lease?

First question should be, do you want to lease or do you want to buy. From an outside long term view, buy is the better option, but it depends on your cash flow.
Dependent on the car type/brand - mileage you expect to add, you should have an idea of what the final sale price would be if you bought the car and intended to sell it.
Do the calculations and see what is best for you.
I was with you until the generalisation, the majority of people in my area (Hertfordshire) seem to be white middle-class that are snapping them up.

Lots of half decent lease deals about and very popular among immigrant communities where Benz is always the top aspirational marque.

I always assumed buying was the better option and maybe it is but the benefits are so slight now with the amount of pcp/lease deals around. Plenty of deals about with no deposit bar 1 month payment, you keep the car for 3-4 years by which time you're ready to move it on anyway and you get something else. No mot or servicing worries in the meantime.
If you're looking for a lease bargain then you have to go in with an open mind about what kind of car you'd be happy with rather than thinking you want a BMW 320d or whatever.
Seen people getting Passat Alltracks and Kia Sorentos for £130 a month. Probably not cars that you had ever considered but you'd be mad not to accept those offers. Who gives a fuck if you don't like the car in the end? You've only got it for 2 years.

No beef but can't believe you can get a new Passat or Sorento for £130 a month, not without a monster deposit anyway

Picked up a scirocco r 18 months back for £1k down and £220 a month for 10,000 miles. Decent deal for a £32k list motor. You have to act fast and have to be willing to take something without options or it starts to add up. Option cost are just divided by the months of the lease and added at full cost so a £1000 option will cost you about £40 a month extra plus Vat. Bear in mind the lease cost includes your road tax too.
