Can anyone recommend a personal car leasing company? Appreciate there are pros & cons, but it looks a solution for me at the moment. Thanks

It's more common to look for the car you want (or type of car), then see which company is offering it, and at the best prices.

I've used central vehicle leasing many times, with no issues.  Usually very competitive.

Or there is Ling if you are brave enough.

definitely Lingcars.com, but only if you want a top of the range Octavia.

Actually I'd argue its better to not look for the car you want and focus more on budget, then see what meets that. Focusing on a model may not get you the best deal as a manufacturer may not be putting much support behind that model at the moment.  Have a look at the Pistonheads Lease Deals 5 thread for good deals.

at the moment

Note that with personal contract hire, you are tied in to the term. There is no penalty free way out of it if, for any reason, you no longer want the car. The penalty varies but as an example VW Financial Servicies will charge 55% of the outstanding monthly payments.

Yes, as long as you don't end up with a 2 seater convertible because it was a bargain, when you really needed a Berlingo 🙂

I use Leden group a couple of times a few years ago. No issues, everything just worked as it should. Can't say they are better/worse than any other company, they just had the best price on the card I wanted at the time

I went with Simpsons Skoda in Preston last year.  Vastly cheaper than anything else I could find in the same class.  Though not much use if you want something other than a Skoda!

It's not obvious but the deals on the page are examples - they're completely flexible on terms (eg, if you wanted a longer term or to pay more / less up front).
