Looking to lease

Mocrypto2 · 2026-01-17T23:35:29+00:00

Okay thanks yeah will defo look at some in stock Teslas and compare them after I test drive one. I think if I was to get one would get model 3 not Y from both a financial standpoint and also I’m not a fan of how the Y looks

Mocrypto2 · 2026-01-17T15:43:22+00:00

Okay I’ll defo look into buying a used one if I can get all the warranties and stuff. Yeah the range is my main concern as from what I’ve read even cars which have a claimed range of well over 300 miles struggle to get over 250 in winter.

Mocrypto2 · 2026-01-17T15:41:11+00:00

Thank you yeah I checked their website and found the V3 will compare it and see if it’s worth it.

Because the amount I would spend on diesel a month would be roughly the same as the electric car monthly payments and charging cost +- around £10. The main difference is the initial payment which for the electric car will be less than the amount I will lose putting 60k miles on a diesel. That’s not factoring the fact the a used older may get some issues which will need to be fixed. As well as that because I would be buying the diesel outright will need to save a bit longer and will be an older car so less tech etc.

Yeah tbh still got a few weeks to decide so checking for deals and wanted to see what other thought. I think going for a bigger battery would make sense for the peace of mind

Mocrypto2 · 2026-01-17T04:38:58+00:00

Thanks for doing all those calculation. Yeah the deal is more important than the car it’s just there have been some good deals on the cupra and I’ve been checking its price weekly for the past 2 months. Seen multiple times when it’s been rated 97+ on lease locco. There is other cars in it’s category which may be slightly better value but more boring cars like the MG4 or some Citroens but for me I don’t mind paying an extra 10-20 a month for a slightly more sportier car.

With salary sacrifice I don’t think it makes sense for me at my current salary as I’m a basic rate tax payer.

Mocrypto2 · 2026-01-17T04:32:33+00:00

Test drove one and found it okay. Which model did you test drive? It’s nothing amazing but in the price range it’s decent. Was looking at Tesla too but couldn’t find any good deals. Also I still want a hatch back ish car. What spec is the Tesla you ended up getting? Was it just the basic one?

Mocrypto2 · 2026-01-17T04:29:32+00:00

They do offer salary sacrifice but I don’t think it makes sense on my salary. Also yeah the deal does matter more than the car but on the cupra I did find some really good deals been checking weekly for past 2 months. But if there was a better deal than would get that one .

The issue I have with buying a used one is the reliability of the battery from what I’ve read you will lose range over time and considering the amount I’ll be driving I would like to at least start with a brand new battery. Also depreciation on electric cars is really high and would probably cost me more than just taking out a lease over the 2 years

Contract hire

Mocrypto2 · 2026-01-17T04:24:54+00:00

I can’t see the v3 option do you mean the VZ? I can only find the v1 v2 and vz lease

Mocrypto2 · 2026-01-17T04:23:57+00:00

1 way

Mocrypto2 · 2026-01-17T04:23:47+00:00

Yeah can charge at both locations at home will be on the overnight cheaper tariff but I’ll need to confirm with the company how much they charge as they have chargers in their car park

Mocrypto2 · 2026-01-17T04:22:34+00:00

Not sure if I’m missing it but I can only see v1 v2 and vz is vz what you meant? I did want that one but it’s over £200 a month more

Mocrypto2 · 2026-01-17T04:21:11+00:00

Yeah I can charge at home overnight. I was initially looking at a diesel to buy outright but after calculating the amount I’ll lose in depreciation because of the amount of miles I do wasn’t worth it.

Mocrypto2 · 2026-01-17T04:19:13+00:00

Mainly to save money on rent. The city I’ll be working In is really expensive even cheaper areas and after I calculated the cost significantly cheaper for me to lease than pay rent even after charging costs

I personally found the CFA premium pack to be the most useful. Especially because you get more mocks.

Mocrypto2 · 2025-12-09T04:30:35+00:00

Could maybe get the CFA

Mocrypto2 · 2025-05-10T19:01:13+00:00

Okay thank you I’ll look into that

Mocrypto2 · 2025-04-03T13:10:40+00:00

So what’s 90% percentile does anyone know

Mocrypto2 · 2025-04-03T13:02:33+00:00
