Thanks for all the great info already on this thread! I'm about to order a Clubman S and looking at a 10k mi/yr or 12k mi/yr lease. Car_man, you mentioned that the rates are different for each model, do you have the current rates for the Club S? Also, does anyone know for sure if these rates can be locked in on a car that is ordered? And lastly it seems like they may be transitioning to the 2010 model year--does that mean completely new rates? Thanks so much in advance, glad a forum like this is around. Jonathan

Replying to: jmitchell74 (Aug 29, 2009 6:10 am) BMW allows consumers to lock in a lease program on a vehicle that they are ordering, so I don't see why one wouldn't be able to do so on a Mini. Having said this, I doubt that one can order a 2009 Cooper any more. Any order would have to be on a 2010 model, which doesn't have any lease support on it yet. The standard lease program on the 2010 version of this car isn't that bad though. The numbers for an otherwise identical lease on a '10 model would be .00250 and 61% (36 mo., 12k).

Replying to: benjaminnyc (Aug 31, 2009 5:54 pm) As far as a down payment on your lease goes, I always advise consumers not to put money down when leasing. Lessees who make down payments on their vehicles risk losing part or all of them if their vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered. You can and should go with a zero down lease. Even though it means that your monthly payment will be a little higher, it will be much safer.

Replying to: 2003vrod (Sep 10, 2009 1:32 pm)  . In your post you mentioned that you are interested in leasing a Mini for $240 per month. Interestingly, that's close to the advertised payment that Mini is touting right now (sometimes it appears on the right side of this page in the add). Mini is currently promoting a $249 per month lease on a base Cooper Hardtop. Of course, this lease requires a $1,000 down payment and your monthly payment would be higher if you are in a state that charges sales tax (which unfortunately most of us are  ). Unfortunately, you definitely will not be able to lease a Cooper convertible for $240 per month. You certainly will save money by going with a used car, but you will not be able to lease a used one. You would have to finance it instead. Plus, used Minis actually tend to hold their value fairly well. Car_man Host Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum |
