      Just realised our car lease is up on 21st March next year, does that mean we will be in this quarter or next for ordering the next one?
      I’m guessing end of December?

        Yep, 31st December should be your earliest ordering date.

          Argh that’s  bit painful, won’t know whether to wait until quarter 1 or not in case AP’s change!
          Saying that, the Tiguan is a bit of a bargain this quarter, and I could see that going up again.

            You could sign on 31st Dec on the condition that, if the AP drops the next day, you pay the lower figure. Dealers seem to allow that from what I’ve seen.

                Good luck. I signed an order on 14th December last year, with a written agreement that I would pay the lower amount if the AP went down on Jan 1.

                  thought you could order 3 months before end of current lease , in which case if your lease is up on 21st of March, you could order form 21st December.

                    Richard’s right. I misread the first post as 31st December. My bad.

                          I think the Tiguan is a better deal but I need to test drive one.
