Im now 2 years into the lease on my Audi etron station wagon so checked what it would cost me if I wanted to buy it.

Original list price was £84K, after 12 months you could buy the same car, registered but with 0 miles for £50K.
24 months in and I can buy it for £35K, I expect it to drop to £25Kish after 36 months Ill probably buy it and keep it forever as its a lot of car for that kind of money

Ive also had some friends look into similar deals recently - monthly cost is 10-15% more than I agreed in 2023 but deposits are huge, Porsche want £5K against a Macan, Audi £13K against an etron ........... I paid £1 deposit for mine.

Dealers here have clearly taken a big hit on overestimating resale values, now trying to claw some of it back. Who knows whether they will be sucessful?
