Lease / used math (ish)
If I lease a new Superb (or other barge) it will cost me about £18k over four years. Yeah.
If I buy a used one for about £12-£18k, it will still be worth 'something' at the end of four years, assuming I'm not doing 100k miles a year (I'm not). Maybe I'll spend a bit more on maintenance, but if I'm lucky it shouldn't be a black hole for cash.
What could I get back at the end? £4-6k, assuming whatever powers it hasn't been found to be doubly / tripply cancer / global warming inducing?
Anything else I need to consider?
