The way we buy cars today - the rise of personal contracts - BBC
I bought this one outright with an online discount of 6K - which is fine if you don't want a new car every 3 years.
If I keep it for 5/6 years, that's relatively cheap/reliable motoring.

Jags come with a no quibble 30% off list price to staff of one of the big IT shops. Cheapest one is about 20 K list new, so about 14 K after discount... which isnt too bad. Pity anyone paying nearer list price though.Comment

Big discounts online and even in dealers.
Trick is not to have a p/e, because then dealers have you by the danglies.Hard Brexit now!
