    but every contractor needs a nice car, right?
    so what would you suggest
    a mercedez clk looks nice but is about £300/month to lease... one day's work?
    What is your mileage?

    I was wanting to lease, but, as I am doing 30K’s, could not get a high mileage friendly leasing deal, hence bought.

    Ford Orion 1.6i Ghia Mk II. £250 to own outright. Sorted.

    (And no, you can't have mine )

    Go for something where the cost of the lease over 3 years is less than the depreciation hit of the same period. That used to be fairly hard, these credit crunched days leasing seems the wiser, less costly option. Watch out for caveats in the contract.
