leasing a 156..
Does anyone lease a 156.
if so..how much do you pay and what do you get? I'm getting a company car but it looks like the 156 SW that I want may not be an option ( The spec that I want pushes my personal user contribution above the maximum I'm allowed so I'm looking into leasing one on my own. Failing that it looks like it may be bye, bye to Alfa's... SS |

I found there can be a huge difference for Alfa cars (up to 100 euro per month). You may include Alfa itself, as they offer lease contracts in some countrues. Make sure the contracts have the same conditions. Paul |

I'm stuck with Lombard through work.
trouble is I'm limited (by the company) on the amount of personal user contribution I can pay. The best i can get is a 1.9 JTD Veloce. with cruise, alfatex interior and comfort pack and a spoiler. I really wanted the 156 SWagon with a leather interior.... but its too much. SS |

by too much I mean the personal user contribution hits the ceiling. (I could
and would pay more if they'd let me. but they won't) I suspect it is to stop the 'plebs' getting a higher spec car than managers above them.... trouble is all the leasing people I've looked at are more expensive than it will cost me from work...for the same car. SS |

The point is, that when you leave the company (voluntary or not) before the end of the lease contract, the company is stuck with a much more expensive car then usual. It doesn't fit their balance books. Also, other emlpoyees are reluctant to take over the contract, cause they have to pay so much Try to be creative there to make the difference smaller.

Got a leased (company contract hire) 2.4JTD Sportwagon at the beginnning of
June, with all the toys (although they forgot to fit the winter pack at the factory, so had to arrange a price reduction). We used to use Interleasing (who I found very good & competitive on pricing), but recently have been going direct to manufacturers. Got the Alfa through my dealer using the FIAT Auto contracts dept, the admin side of things has left a bit to be desired, but pricing was very good.

Basic price for 36 months / 15000 pa was £385 / month including maintenance
for the 2.4 JTD Sportwagon Veloce. If you specify any options, these really bump up the lease cost, because the value is non-recoverable at resale. But as mine is a company car I had quite a lot of options including leather, Bose etc which took the total up to around £490. Regards, Martin.

cheers.
I'll stick with the low spec work lease option. 1.9 jtd 140 veloce saloon. Alfatex interior, cruise and comfort pack, works out at about £180 - 190 per month for the tax bill and the personal user cost. I really wanted leather and bose as well but they exceed my maximum personal user cost. SS |
