Can always count on you to find a fault with a photo...You can use that hot exhaust to eradicate some driveway weeds

It's my job. Finding fault with other people's output (that's finance, what can I say?)Can always count on you to find a fault with a photo...
If you have minimal up-front payments, (i.e. 1+) it should stay low. If you had 9+, it'll likely not be as good as you want.It’s all about the numbers. Not a driveway lol.
Anyways...sub 6 months to go. Half expecting to hear from my lease company soon. Though i may be pro active and contact them. See what a 1 year extension looks like. Another service and 2 new tyres will have to be factored in but if they keep the price dirt cheap (as it is currently), it might be the sensible option.
Certainly the easiest option.
It might hold steady. My 1+23 on the Skoda superb estate se tech etc went from £256 to £206 for a 6 month extension. Bargain!Twas a 3+23 so hopeful.

Has anyone ever had a lease deal finance rejected and then immediately accepted with another more expensive lender?
After completing the application I was told they would contact me in 24 hours... I barely got off the call and received an email telling me it was rejected but they could apply with another lender, but it was a little more expensive... I agreed and was accepted fairly quickly.
It's my first lease so not sure if common practice. It just seemed a little too convenient.. list at the absolute lowest price and reject any finance forcing customers to pay more.
No, but when I had just left uni and had no credit score so to speak, I went for a PCP brand new focus ST and got rejected by one lender, then they applied for finance without my permission and got it approved with slightly worse terms (needed an guarantor).Has anyone ever had a lease deal finance rejected and then immediately accepted with another more expensive lender?

Sound pretty stand practice, such you in with good numbers but needing top-notch credit rating then deal you the real numbers.No, but when I had just left uni and had no credit score so to speak, I went for a PCP brand new focus ST and got rejected by one lender, then they applied for finance without my permission and got it approved with slightly worse terms (needed an guarantor).
Fair enough, the additional cost was negligible, roughly an extra £200 across the term of the contract. I didn't catch the APR difference, I've already agreed to sell my old car so didn't have time to appeal or mess around... I can live with an extra few quid I just thought it seemed odd, probably because they seemed pushy after I'd committed, I was getting the old "We have to be quick it's the last one and it's first come first serve".
In stock deals tend to be cheaper and can go very quick due to limited numbers.
I got better offers near the end. Shīte offers 5m before end, despite them trying to scare me that the lease was coming to an end.I read on another forum that its best to wait till t minus 3 months from end of contract, before enquiring about an extention? Do peeps agree?
My deal ends on 31st Jan so a tad less than 4 months.
Given that good (as in historically good) deals are totally non existant now, pretty much resigend to handing back and getting a jalopy (unlikely), or extending (likely).
