With 36 month only leases I can’t see many people opting for the high end AP.
Yeah we probably won’t.
But so far, most quarters there’s a banger deal somewhere (Ioniq 6 Ultimate for less than £1k etc), so.. I’m not too mad, i’ll be honest.
Particularly because usually, after three years, it feels like we’re paying too much for the car (insuring/taxing/servicing a 3 year old car doesn’t cost £4k a year, depreciation already happened in the first 12-24 months).
High end AP vehicles on the scheme are all nonsensical anyway, nobody is going to pay £8k for a bloody Vauxhall PHEV anyway.
The entire idea of scrapping the extension, as Glos mentioned, is nonsensical from the MB point of view. Assuming that’s the only change.
