Rob and Mark get asked several times a week whether to buy or lease a car! Mark knows more than almost anyone else all about owning cars, including the best deals in each situation. Listen in to be educated on all things owning cars!

KEY TAKEAWAYS 

• If you are buying a high-end supercar or classic, the best thing is to buy it at 2+ years old.
• Financing is a good option, you can even approach lease companies to buy it, lease it to you and give you the option of buying at the end of the lease.
• A tax-efficient way to buy a car is to put it against an LLP or as a sole trader.
• A flat rate isn’t as good a deal as it sounds. You often actually paying more.
• What Mark focuses on above everything else, is the yearly cost including depreciation and maintenance.
• Manufacturers at any one point may have too many cars. They don’t want to reduce prices on the forecourt because of this though as there will still be people who will pay that. They instead get discounted via contract hire.
• The car market is starting to recover from the supply issue over the Covid pandemic. You will start to see better deals via contract hire.

 

BEST MOMENTS

“When the market turns, it’s gonna turn hard”

“If you look at the APR, that’s the real rate”
