The Audi TT is officially the most leased car in history, but why? Many people have criticised the vehicles reliability and its road life but it must be doing something to get this accolade.
A basic level model will set you back around about £25,000 from new but these cars don’t really hold their value so a second hand one in good condition shouldn’t set you back much more than £15,000.
Looking at the car you wouldn’t be mistaken in thinking that it’s a very tight coupe with not much room but once inside the space available is surprising and does well to drown out the sounds of the 3.2 litre V6.
The 3.2 also manages 0-60 in around 5.9 which isn’t bad for a coupe. A lot of people have the impression that the Audi TT is a sports car, it isn’t it is just a very aesthetically pleasing and small coupe.
As mentioned earlier a lot of people have criticised the reliability and quality of the TT but sadly this is a by effect of mass produced cars. Any faults that were in the original model in terms of quality appear to have been phased out by Audi and this latest model will be a reliable companion.
One the issues with this model is the shape, the sloping nature does make it difficult to park but you would be sacrificing a huge unique point if it wasn’t there.
Fuel consumption isn’t too bad with the TT either the 3.2 gets you around 27.2mpg which makes it a good choice for business users.
After looking at this car you can probably see why it’s a big one in the leasing industry with its good looks and solid brand behind it, it will give the impression you want to give.
As these cars don’t really hold their value leasing could be a good option it gives you flexibility and the option to claim back certain aspects if you are a business user. Take a look at Leasebam who will search all local dealers to find the best leasing deal for you, all without you having to leave you computer screen.
“Refined and desirable” is a a phrase used to describe the entire Audi range but the A4 is the foundations to this compliment.
The body shape is iconic not as an Audi but as an A4, after nearly 16 years of production and four different generations this year’s offering has been described by WhatCar as: “The grown up model”. In the video below the boys from Everyday Driver give the A4 a run over through different terrains, from beaches to canyons to see if it’s a contender by their very high standards.
Reviews have favoured the A4 both technically and aesthetically but one of the criticisms that has been levelled at the car is the dashboard which seems to give the illusion of being a bit too shiny but this is a small criticism in a sea of compliments.
From its breathtaking appearance to the multimedia screen fitted as standard the A4 gives the image that buyers crave and the German manufacturing guarantees reliability paired with a smooth ride. The engine comes in a variety of options with the most popular being the 2.0TSFI giving 211ps power.
Prices start at around £25,000 for the 1.8 but leasing could be a more flexible option for this iconic vehicle.
You would never guess that the manufacturers of executive cars would be leading the way in fuel emmissions, clearly less is more in this ever aware green world, that Audi’s baby the Audi A3 1.6 TDI can now do around 74 miles to the gallon and has a CO2 output of 99%. As we know just about all taxes in the UK relates to CO2 emmissions, so that meams less road tax, less fuel (so less tax) and if you are a business owner, leasing an Audi 3, then this also means being able to claim more tax back as a business expense, not mentioning the savings in running the car.
There appears almost to be a running battle with german manufacturers who can get their cars running for less, not a bad thing for us consumers. The Audi A3 also has start stop technology, stopping the engine when the car comes to a halt then starting it again when the clutch is depressed, especillay usefull in start stop situations like traffic lights or traffic jams. This frugal modal is out now, but there are other versions of teh Audi A3 with a bit more power in exchange for a bit more CO2 output. These cars are built to the same standard as their larger counterparts, but clearly aimed at a slighty different market, being smaller in size.
OK you might be considering Audi A3 contract hire, so for that purpose here is another review viseo on the subject, however before these new frugal changes were out in place.
The model on review here is the Audi A6 3.0T Quatro. This four wheeled car can do 60m in uder 6 seconds and has a top speed of around 150pmh, so for those who are looking for speed comfort and quality of build not to mention the Audi badge, this may be the right car for you to lease. The review compares this to similar Mercedes on the market and shows interiors shots as well as how the Audi A6 looks whilst being driven at speed. The new neon lights are a feature on most Audi’s now and give the “bullish” look some class. The Audi A6 range is becoming a favourite with executives and business owners, especially in the Lease market and are suiting those that find BMW and Mercedes a bit “old hat” now and ant something different, but what still delivers the goods. The Audi A6 does deliver and should watch the video to make your own mind up.
The Audi A3 may be described as the baby Audi, because of its size, but its refinement and quality of build it is aimed at those who want a smaller car but don’t want to compromise and want German build quality. The A3 come in both standard and sports models that still pack a punch and this review takes time out to compare it to the BMW 3 series, especially in the engine department.
It is another American view on a European car, but still seems to get the comparisons right. There is no doubt that Audi are in favour with customers at the moment, the badge is becomming (or is) sought after and the A3 fills the gap between family car and executive car.
There was a time when BMW and Mercedes dominated the executive car market, but know Audi have their foot firmly on the pedal of success. As far as car lease is concerned, Leasebam has more requests for Audi than the other 2 main German rivals.
One of the favourites is the Audi A4, so it makes sense to ensure there is at least one Audi A4 review listed here on Leasebam. This is an American review from Everyday driver is looking at the new 2009 A4, even talking about the similarities in design to Toyota, looks like a Japanese car? The key is Fobgina, not the real description, but it was quiet amusing. The best interior on the market is also a compliment to Audi, but there are comments that suggest that it does have its weaknesses but is still an excellent car.
As far as leasing an A4 is concerned, you should do your homework, as there are varying difference on quotes presented through Leasebam, and you should research each one to ensure you do get a good Audi A4 car lease deal.
