Car Deals & Offers

You’re by yourself there I’m afraid.

Hehehe. Volvo defo don’t do Hype.

BRILLIANT !!!! What speed does it get up to in Over-Hype mode then? Oh, please, please keep these nuggets of wisdom & inspiration coming, they are so so helpful in my decision making process as I look at deals on HUKD.

Theirs a few things that make this a bad deal. First the OTR price £35,000. This has been posted a few time on this site for £26,000 https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/volvo-s90-saloon-20-t4-momentum-plus-4dr-geartronic-mpw-25219-at-new-car-discount-3390250. Second, the rental period of 4 years for £13,295,52. This car again is on the Site already with a 2 year lease for £7,314. So it would be better to hire 2 years, as this will work out cheaper. Besides the issue of breaking down outside the manufacture warranty period. You Also have extra costs's such as Extra servicing or tyre replacement. Also after 2 years you would be able to lease another one for 2 years.. Obviously this is just my view of the deal.

Just change term, £288 month over 36mths would be better so you are covered with full warranty. Then price up a 3 year service plan through Volvo.

Yes you have to pay 21 pence per mile on top of your hourly/daily rental. There is a petrol card inside the car if you need to refill (You can earn tesco/nectar points at the right petrol stations.)

Oh good

Except it says "NHS Staff/Volunteers, Emergency Services, Armed Forces & Key Workers"

From the page you linked "...all members prior to renting are to ensure they:(...)Are not living with or in close contact with someone who is currently quarantined or who has tested positive for the virus."So looks like they're not eligible anyway?

Do you have to pay the per mile rate on top of the hourly/daily rental fee or do you choose which of the tariffs you want to use?

Hi all, Thanks for picking up and sharing our offer on the new SX4 S-Cross. To answer a few questions listed above: - MPG: Real world figures are mid to high 40's. It was initially listed incorrectly as 37 and now corrected to the figure of 45 which is under the new 'realistic' MPG test. We have many customers averaging 50-55+ - Why so cheap? Quite simply, there's a new, hybrid model coming shortly. We had a few of these left in stock which have to go. It is the entry level spec, but you still get a hell of a lot of car for £12,495 and it's the much loved 1.0 Boosterjet turbo engine (it's difficult to buy a new small hatchback/city car for that money these days) - Would you buy a car online from someone you've never heard of? We're the UK's leading Suzuki dealer (4x Suzuki dealer of the year) and we look after customers properly. We pride ourselves on our reviews and have thousands of unprompted 5* reviews (see Trustpilot, Google etc). We also can arrange nationwide delivery and 'virtual test drives' for anyone looking for more information on this or any of our cars while the dealerships are closed. I hope this helps - of course if anyone has any questions or would like any help/advice regarding a new or used car, feel free to get in touch on our website www.luscombemotors.co.uk or email me at sam.luscombe@luscombemotors.co.uk.

If it was automatic would buy

Had a few SJ's in the past, all of them saw dirt.... do like the new jimney, looks like a little jeep

Now been updated to 45MPG which will is the correct figure under WLTP standards. The rules on advertising cars MPG changed on 1st April, so before that it would have been advertised at 53 MPG. Quite an economical car for its size.

Fugly!

I was with you until you claimed you could get 5-10% on an equity/bond fund

I remember, when UK was not.

Thank you. Always good to have some real feedback. I'm still looking at deals at the moment.

We have a tall family and have found the space in this car great for us. I'm only 5'8 but have comfortably sat in the middle row on motorway journeys while our 6'2 passenger sat up front without anyone compromising on comfort. The back is also great for kids as the size of the window doesn't make them feel like the view is limited. Although I wouldn't want to sit there for a long journey myself, it is THE most comfortable 7-seater back row I've sat in as the seat padding is not an afterthought and the sizing is adequate for long legs.

Lol, yes, he did go a bit off reservation with his investments. Wonder how much Kent council got back for their pension fund.

Yeah but look between the cashback sites too as that can vary. There’s quidco, topcashback plus possibly different work ones

What's the trick here if u don't mind me asking? Search the car insurance you want on the price comparison site then search that company in topcashback?

If you’ve got any work schemes it’s worth looking through them too. I got house insurance through there, went with British Gas (didn’t even know they did insurance til that point) and for a £110 policy I should get £50 odd back in the next few weeks (I’ve been waiting about 3 months but still half back ain’t bad)

(

I pay £2.66pm for my entertainment pass and £4.80pm for the Movie pass. If you pay full price, then I guess this can be seen as a deal.

Assume this converts into a kite in high winds ;)

Some people's taste ! bloody eyesore...

Its good for wet winter, when you have to kick-off your car at 6:30am. You don't need to wait for clean the moisture on glass.

I wonder how useful these really are, for the price anyway. Granted it will reduce the temperatures inside the car a bit, but your car is still going to get covered in detritus as it's fully exposed anyway. And as to it being useful if you want to work on the car while it's raining, etc - it looks like there is barely enough room around an average sized car anyway. You can find tongue & groove car ports on eBay for not a great deal more than this, which would surely be more useful.

That is going to look really ugly on the drive of most houses.

Heat

This is better a new car deal rather than all these lease/pcp deals. Bloody nightmare things. No flexibility on mileage without paying extra and they always go over the car with a toothcomb. V90 deal a bit cheaper than this would be good. That said the petrol seems to have terrible mpg. Could be why they are struggling to shift.

Yep your right but hopefully there might be a few bargains around to tempt the cash strapped after this nightmare. Ive been saving my pennies so here's hoping.

Also, looks like Volvo have stopped selling pure petrol/diesel vehicles.. Suspect theyve got some old stock to shift!

Don’t forget that manufacturing has also stopped during the pandemic so future savings may not be as strong as you anticipate.

Fair enough but mine's been faultless so far (56K miles).

I wish there was a diesel

In UK on every single corner we have a speed cameras also on the motorway is speed limit no like in eg Germany so give me one reason why you need more BHP’s?

Ye the other half of the story is its quicker than the diesel in 0-60 lol

Wasnt sure about the white colour, especially in the winter months so in one way I was glad they had sold out by the time I rang them. Paid the extra £590 to get the metalic colour I wanted although I'm having to wait a few extra weeks for delivery. At least I know its my name thats the only one on the registration, if that matters anymore. Really pleased with the price. Hope the doomsayers are wrong and that it proves a reliable a car as my 10 year old Fiesta as been. Thanks poster for finding this deal.

If it’s still being advertised at this price then it should be available contact the leasing company directly.

This dead now then?

Yeah but that was 5k miles and no upfront payment, this was the same car with 8k miles quoted and 3 months upfront. It’s playing about with the finance. I believe Lex has pulled the plug on these deals now though. No more at this price.

This same car that was £6600? https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/audi-a4-avant-35-tfsi-black-edition-5dr-24m-lease-5k-miles-pa-no-upfront-cost-270-pm-180-admin-6660-at-leasing-options-3447638

Thanks

4 leafed clover is all I'm saying.

"even if you happen to be driving a superior vehicle." Ha ha ha ha hahaha ha ha hahaaaaaaa - that explains your user name (lol)

That's a relief (y) The number of young uns on R plates I see where I live that don't signal is crazy regardless of conditions, an ad' campaign is required I think (shock)

So if they can’t guarantee to of seen every road user or if visibility is poor, then they will be taught to signal. They would only get away with not signalling if they were somewhere where one isn’t required. So to answer your original question, yes they are taught to signal moving off if one is required, and if in doubt they would be taught to signal. But often they forget to.

Seeing as you can't guarantee you've seen every other road user, especially when visibility is poor, if you're involved in some form of RTA and had not signalled your intentions you run the risk of falling foul of the law. I'd recommend to anyone being taught that it's acceptable to not signal your intentions to think carefully :o

Went from 15k to 5k. Not sure I will even do 5k but thought that might cover off rest of policy now!

£45 for me (y) :)

£0.01 Not worth the effort (lol)

Example 12k miles a year 1k a month Lose 3 months Drop to 9k a year Out of lockdown, you'll not pick up these lost 3k miles. Well if we are all going to the south of France for a holiday them most of the 3k will get made up! XD

Careful, some insurers charge you to make any change to your policy. Its written in the t&c’s so your £10 saving may actually cost you.

Not heard anything yet. Checked bank too and nothing refunded.

Just checked my credit card statement. We paid annually. Just had a £25.76 refund. Can't remember what I put exactly but I think we had 12k miles on our policy. I put down that we were doing 15 miles a week in lockdown. Annual policy cost was about £320 so that's about an 8% reduction.

Not a sausage

Me also.....has anybody received a payment yet?

I have applied last week but not had a response yet

Great find - just ordered for the missus. They only have metallic left

very good price. you get issues on cars twice and more the price. Also most car leases cost approx £6K for 2 years, so this seems just as good. At a guess i assume this car will cost £2-3K at the end of 6 years.

we have a 1.5dci - the dpf on these things is complete and utter crap - mrs spent best part of £1500 sorting it out, I've got it fixed now and it drives so much nicer! :)

Good turbo on the 1.3, feels alot nicer IMO. I test drove the 160 BHP & found it more than enough. The 140 was great for my needs!

I had the 1.5 for 2 years and loved it now I'm looking at the 1.3 but was a little worried. Does it feel nicer or the same? Was worries about power going up hill also.
