Hello, I have ordered a new BMW 320d. The car is to be delivered next week. The financing will be through BMW leasing. In the sales talks I made clear to the dealer that it is very important to me that I have the opportunity to take over the car after the 36 months. After long overlays I trusted the seller’s recommendation and signed the kilometer leasing. Furthermore, I made business leasing because according to the sales rs “there are no differences”. In the meantime, I have read that only private leasing offers the possibility to take over the car after the lease period. However, an additional right of cancellation has to be agreed. Of course, I am a little disappointed that the seller did not immediately draw my attention to the fact that the takeover is only possible with private leasing. I will urge that the lease agreement be amended to this effect – and even before the delivery of the W agens. Now my questions to you: What experience did you have in taking over the car after the lease period? Especially with BMW. Were there problems with a takeover, even if no right of cancellation was agreed? Is the KM leasing also the cheaper option when taking over the car later, since the residual value to be paid is allegedly lower than with the residual value leasing? What was the residual value of the car in the past after 36 leasing months? According to BMW-Ve This (if at all) will be 50% of the NP. Sixt expects about 60% here. But the leasing rates at Sixt with residual value leasing are much cheaper. Thanks for your answers Klaus
