When looking over the ridiculous stories of hidden costs, termination penalties and high interest rates for those with bad credit, why lease a car? Why not just get a car loan and buy your own car?

I completely agree!!!!! My brother has just finished a 24month lease contract and said he would never lease again. To his surprise there was a huge balloon payment at the end of his contract and on top of that they took nearly £200 out of his deposit for a minor scratch…….

    Buying does have its advantages but for those who can afford it, leasing could allow you to have a new car every year with the minimum of hassle or stress.

    Leasing can be cheaper in the short term depending on what kind of car you drive and how many miles you do a year.
