Car leasing

Does anyone have any idea about car leasing options in OZ. leasing over here in the uk is a real cheap option for certain vehicles and was wondering whether any options are available over there.

It would be really helpful to have this option,Does anyone have any info on car leasing????????

I found this website Flexi Car Lease | Flexi Car Leasing | Car Finance | Car Lease | Finance Lease Broker - 1300 Car Lease, I think they call it flexi car lease,to lease a vehicle from month to month.

Could`nt find any online quote system or anything.

Anyone with inside info,pls share.

Thank you

Just bumping this thread back to the top.

I think quite a few people lease cars over here as the government subsidises it. I'm still unsure as to the why but the Novated lease option (salary packaging the cost of a car) a few posts up seems to be offered by many employers. You can pay so much from your pre-tax wages & the rest from post-tax if you need it. If you work for a not for profit organisation there are tons of other things that you can pay for from your pre-tax wages too - to a certain limit each year. This means that your taxable earnings are reduced & if last year is anything to go by I'll be expecting a tax refund again at the end of this financial year!

I think there are some cheaper leasing options with the lower emission vehicles but it's not such a good deal as the UK I don't think - but they're quoting a Toyota Yaris at only $39.00 per week via my companies lease company.

I have a novated lease; they're only worthwhile if you're on 40% tax or above, plus they can affect your super payments and overtime rate through effectively having a lower taxable income. Mine comes in at $250 p/w for a Lancer Evo fully serviced, so it's 18k per year before tax, 12k out of my pocket.

If you want a good explanation of what a novated lease in Australia, try this link to Wikipedia. In the UK it is different because it is basically swapping a car lease.
