Originally posted by kaiser78 View PostI had a look at the Guilietta but did not find it any way as nice as the Mazda. And I need a 5 door not 3 which also discounts this.
Leasing costs Mazda also seem lower than the Alfa.
Since when was the Giulietta 3 door?
You mustn't have had much of a look!…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

2 doors on the side and the boot = 3 doors, no ? (I did admittedly only have a quick look though)______________________

It's got hidden door handles for the rear doors. One of its few nice touches. Otherwise it's a mediocre car without the charisma of previous Alfas.Originally posted by kaiser78 View PostAlfa Giulietta | Hatchback Cars | Alfa Romeo UK

Ah, so it's probably end-of-line model. Still, very cheap at less than £200/month for a decent spec.Originally posted by eek View Post8 year old model on the old platform....Comment

I am homing in on one of these, as how found a 2 year deal (3+23) for sub £200/month, with 7.0p excess mileage.Originally posted by kaiser78 View Posthttps://www.mazda.co.uk/cars/mazda3-sport-black/
Done the test drive and really like it. Can lease for 3 years for £230-240/month.
Any recommendations as a car ?
Looking to order next week
And have done the sums and this is a good approach as lower mileage + potential surplus excess = less than monthly lease with the higher mileage included.Originally posted by eek View PostChanged that link as I've found it cheaper (now its the same broker my passat came from).,,
The excess mileage will be 7.2p a mile (you can usually get that down to 4p or so if you speak nicely to VWFS at the right time, roughly 12 months into the contract)... Also always go for the 5000 mile option and pay the 7.2p surplus its cheaper and avoids paying for mileage you may not use...
