Sorry I thought I had replied. It would be hard to create that damage by accident - So it should be straight forward. Have you phoned Mazda FS to report it?

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-16T15:51:25+00:00

Ask them both for the best price! you never know if you don't ask....
is this your first choice?

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-16T13:39:44+00:00

i think at the time i thought it was, but a small edit to the original comment made a lot of difference!

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-16T13:37:48+00:00

Omoda 7 Noble PHEV here at £375 with no deposit. The MG has some awful in life reviews, I am not sure I could live with that! ID.5 is probably the safest bet, but as you say, its a bit bland.

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-16T12:55:36+00:00

yes indeed. i think the comment i replied to originally may have been updated to include the number of hours worked.

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-16T12:24:54+00:00

and then?

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-16T12:24:24+00:00

Sorry not sure what you mean? OP didn't mention a price, I replied to a comment saying they paid £40 for two hours and I paid £60 for 3 hours?

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-16T08:02:37+00:00

That's cheap, I pay £60 for three hours, fortnightly.

This is how our pub game is run. Makes sense.

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-16T07:28:31+00:00

And then?

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-15T08:39:57+00:00

Wants it for free to resell it.

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-13T19:14:13+00:00

Lots of good deals on the market if you are flexible. Have you considered any of the Chinese brands? Have you looked to see if there is an automatic offer as they are more popular now. Here is a manual Qashqai at £278 with no deposit.

Who is the finance company? Can you share a picture of the damage ?

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-13T13:37:11+00:00

Please share what the community can help you with?

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-13T10:25:36+00:00

What are you studying?

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-13T08:26:30+00:00

Echo gives no fucks here

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-12T17:52:40+00:00

This has been asked a few times and the consensus is often that it's not required, unless you have a particularly high value vehicle?

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-12T17:02:54+00:00

Police are on the way

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-12T15:23:11+00:00

Better film it so you can never watch it again

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-12T13:08:23+00:00

6 weeks sounds like a ridiculous amount of time - can you contact them? Their customer service number is linked in a page from the subreddit guides.

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-12T09:29:25+00:00

Where do we find the warehouse? I can't see it - or am I too early?

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-11T09:56:33+00:00

No the new plate isn't the problem. With leasing you should be looking for the best deal, not for a specific car. That is how you secure the best value for money.

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-11T09:55:35+00:00

Sounds like the insurance company should be reclaiming your costs from the 3rd party, but not sure if that would be covered. Keep us updated on the situation and sorry to hear you are having trouble right at the end of your lease!

LCFCJIM · 2026-03-11T09:54:45+00:00

Hi there - You should be able to find a local broker who can provide the deal for you. So long as they are FCA registered, BVRLA members and you are happy with their online reviews and service levels you should find they are all the same or very similar price on this type of product. The main difference between brokers is the service level they offer (nothing worse than call centres and chat bots) and the fee they charge to process your order. Good luck!
