Iv been wondering what car i should go for next, Ofcourse with this car it was a very good lease deal for under £300pm for 2 years,
Any other cars similar to this with good performance but also affordable maybe 350 max a month id go. Can be any brand
 
You are going to struggle at the moment for any choice, deals or stock; new cars seen to be non existent and most have factory orders backing up over six/nine months.

Try lease loco for what's available, but there aren't any Cupra Leon.

If I were you I'd try to extend the lease for a year, but I've heard that's getting harder as the prices fetched at auction are through the roof

I went from Seat Leon to Seat Ibiza, to Volvo V40, and now Audi A3 (ordered in Dec 2020, just before the real Brexit / chip fiasco). Interestingly, as I'm leasing on 6+24, the Ibiza was the same monthly as the Audi, and the Volvo was only 5 pounds a month more. The Leon was a PCP, so it's not possible to compare like for like.

By to your question...what about Polo GTI? or you are looking for something Leon sized?

I dont mind any shaped car or any brand just as long as the power is around 300 bhp for upto £350 max a month.
 
Im halfway through a 2 year lease on my Cupra but always keep an eye on all the leasing deals. As has been said above, there is next to nothing at the moment, the leasing market has really stagnated of late with very little on offer. You could get a Cupra Leon but would maybe need to push your budget a little......https://www.leasingoptions.co.uk/car-leasing/cupra/leon

Yeh its awful, i hope we get deals like we got for our cars. Everyone is saying currently with the chip shortages too all cars will be expensive.

I'm on my second Cupra. Went from a manual 280 with the black pack to 290 (2019).
Both my leases were in the £250 range with a 2k deposit 10k miles per year.

The 290 has been epic. Luckily I got a few toys like beats sound, panroof, winter pack, camera e.t.c.
Its also got the oem skirts and front lip. Going to be hard to beat.
It'll be 36 months in January 2022 (Originally on a 24 month lease)

With the warranty up I'm not looking to extend. Will be sad to see it go though.

Tried to get the mk4 300 petrol but the deals were awful.

Ordered a m135i through Arnold Clark which was cheaper than a mk4 cupra (servicing included and pro pack included). Paying £80 more over my old lease.

Looking forward to the xdrive, but in all honesty I wanted the mk4, just couldn't justify the spend and was gutted at the lack of sound upgrade.

Unfortunately I'm one of those affected by the recent factory order delays.

I think theres going to be so many people in the same boat and I think its only going to get worse. The base cost of the mk4 is rediculous if you ask me.

On the bright side tho, the M135i is a cracking car. A mate of mine has one and having had a go in it, I was very impressed. What sort of delivery date did you get?

The BMW is quite a bit more expensive IME, ironically I wanted the M135i instead of the Leon MK4 300 but you can still pick up a Cupra 300 VZ2 via lease loco for 300 a month and 2.5K deposit. That's 8K miles w/ metallic paint. Cheapest BMW lease I've seen is w/ tech pack, 8K miles, no paint selected £313.00 a month and 4K in.

You can get a Golf R from nationwide for 329 and 4K in (8k miles / metallic black). I very much agree with the base cost over here though...
