  • Alphabet – different winter tyres

    Hello, I have a company leasing contract with alphabet that includes both summer bikes 18″ and winter bikes. Unfortunately I had the winter bikes stored immediately than I picked up the vehicle. On request at the BMW dealer told me that the leasing 16″ winter bikes delivered. These are only the standard tyres and look honestly more than modest with an upper class vehicle. I have the following questions: 1. Can I buy 17″ winter bikes without any problems and drive them instead of the winter bikes ordered by the leasing? 2. Can I have the winter bikes handed over to me and privately store them and have my private bikes stored for this purpose and use the bike change service? Cost-wise, no other costs should be incurred as for the 16″ winter bikes from the leasing.

  • Leasing end – costs of defective repair

    Hello, My lease has expired and I delivered the car. In the TÜV report it turned out that the contract workshop has not repaired a damage properly and therefore needs to be improved. The costs for this have now been charged to me. How is the right thing to do here? Do I have to demand the money from the workshop now or do I have to clarify this between the lessor and the workshop? Thank you already in advance Jakob

  • Lucrative leasing or purchase offers for small electric cars

    Hello, a friend is looking for a compact electric vehicle as a second vehicle, with which mostly only purchases are to be done. The mileage is extremely low (although not even 1000 KM / anno). The question is with such an application scenario, what is more useful? Leasing or purchase (including subsidy from the state)? Does anyone know very good offers for small or compact electric vehicles? Brand is secondary, it should above all be the P/L ratio correct. Is there the best possible P/L ratio? Is there a good overview page with a comparison of the different models that are currently on the market? Thanks for your relevant input.

  • Early return to VW (experiences please)

    Hello, I’ve been leasing a Golf 8 GTI for a few months. Contract duration is 36 months. I’m highly satisfied with the GTI and it’s fun to drive with it. From January next year I change the employer now and from then on I have no use at all for the car (move to a big city and my employer will be only 10 minutes away on foot from my new apartment. Since I live directly in the center, I probably won’t even find a parking space). someone maybe experiences how the car dealership reacts when I am there because of a resolution demand (want to call next week)? If they would say “you can’t do anything” that would be extremely stupid for me, as I would have to park the car somewhere for 2.5 years, but still pay insurance and leasing rates. Thank you for the help.

  • Private leasing ended – dealer demands “special payment” after 6 months

    Hello together, briefly to the previous story: it was a private leasing, which was ended without any problems, no damage, no claims for return (crats or any other. Damage). However, never came an invoice of the special payment. And one does not simply send money to good luck somewhere. Now the leasing contract has been terminated on 20.02.24, without any subsequent claims. In the leasing contract it says: “…the leasing special payment is at the beginning of the leasing period at the delivered This “beginning…” was in February 2023 – which was also postponed, would have been actually 02.01.23 …. but before the end of the expiration period for the withdrawal was delivered. As said, today came a warning – which leaves me completely cold. Because the required amount is wrong (are 100% of the special payment), although in writing I have the confirmation of an amount of about 1/4 less (because I have monetized the late delivery and the hinw Also no invoice is included, but only the “special payment” from the order neongeld marked. All in all therefore a joke. I did not want to go directly to the lawyer, because the thing is obvious. Or am I completely wrong? Say your opinion about it – thank you. Greeting Marcus Achso, PS: the dealer is king from Berlin… who else would be so bold 😉

  • Leasing return in September 24, must rims/tires new?

    A few data Ahead: Leasing started in September 21, the lease term is 36 months. the Kamiq was driven the time over with all-weather tires, so original summer tires hardly lost any profile. Moin from the north, with me is at the end of September 24 my first leasing return of the Skoda Kamiq, of course in advance one thinks accordingly. I recently fell out of all the clouds when I saw that two of the original summer tires have damage Since I have hardly driven this summer tire, which annoys me accordingly. I would like to get your advice whether you would still get used tires in advance as a replacement or have another idea. Furthermore, you can see from the pictures that 3 of the rims, from the point of view of a layman, have minimal damage. Do you think these have to be replaced by “new” rims? A new leasing vehicle of the VW company from the same dealer z The leasing itself runs through the VW bank. Thank you in advance!

  • Leasing return Renault – Payment of defects requested immediately on site

    Hello everybody, I’m about to return a Renault, and the leaflet says that any faults that may be complained of should be paid directly on site by EC card. Since I’ve never had a problem with returns, I’m not sure what to think about it. Here’s the wording: “In case of undervalues in the evaluation and/or multi-kilometres we ask you to pay them directly by EC card here at the checkout.” What happens if I don’t agree with the report? If I have to pay first and then challenge it, it looks rather bad to get the money back. The report is carried out by the Dekra, but it can always be something. What does the matter legally look like to demand an immediate payment? VG

  • Private leasing with negative interest

    I have a private lease offer that looks like this: rental special 14500 total loan amount 14300 residual value 2900 monthly lease rate 206 nominal interest -16.75% effective annual interest -15.5 total akker payments 24700 5000 km per year I have a whole range of questions: 1. Are there any other hidden costs that I have to pay at the end of the lease period? 2. Is the stated residual price a fixed residual price or an estimated price? 3. I know that I have the car after 36 months Can the leasing company refuse me the sale of the car at the remaining price? 4. If I know that I keep the car after 3 years, can I drive more than 5000 km per year, as stated in the leasing agreement? What other factors should I consider when deciding on this leasing offer?

  • Commercial leasing or private leasing – does it make sense to us?

    Hello together, I don’t have any experience with leasing yet and we don’t know what to do exactly. Would be nice to get a recommendation. It’s about our second car, in the case of a 16-year-old Audi A6 from my wife. It’s starting to get real in the years and before the next TÜV, 1500~2000 Euro repairs are definitely due. Contrary to the trend, she’s more into big, sleek and strong cars, all that looks like small cars or a lame crutch, For 2 years you have had a business, there is the possibility for commercial leasing (I have already clarified). However, the commercial journeys are limited and the work path is only 2km. We use the vehicle in total 5~8tkm per year. We have a private wallbox with PV system, which makes an e-car more meaningful. The following offers are available to us: – Cupra Born in PRIVATleasing (e-car, 10k/year, 24M) for 207 euros without insurance (option: +25 for maintenance) – Cupra Born in GEWERBEleasing (42000,- E-car, 10k/year, 48M, 0.25% rule) for 410 Euro All-Inclusive (maintenance + casco + tyre change) – Cupra Formentor 1.5eTSI (36000,- burner, 1% rule, 10k/year, 24M) in GEWERBEleasing for 220 Euro All-Inclusive (maintenance + casco + tyre change) – Cupra Formentor 1.5 HYBRID (44000,- plugin, 0.5% rule, 10k/year 24M) in GEWERBEleasing for 295 Euro All-Inclusive (maintenance + casco + tyre change) I see the right thing that the moulder HYBRID at the end hardly t Yours is as the Formentor VERBRENNER because of the 0.5% instead of 1% monetary advantage despite the higher leasing rate? My wife only comes on business at about 25km/week, it will be difficult to argue many business kilometers. Then rather the Born privately and do without commercial leasing? Or just accept the repair costs from the Audi and drive another 2 more years? What do you think?
