No reason to think they would to be honest. We will have to wait and see.

 

They’re doing HP through their usual providers.

Drive Electric are doing leases.

 

Yeah already got my HP confirmed by Tesla/Black Horse £725 a month, ouch. Drive Electric said come back in 2 weeks time for personal leases.

 

Be careful, now you have been approved by Black Horse you may have the value as a loan on your credit file which may impact on your credit score when/if a lease company credit checks you.

 

AWD no options not even colour and £10k upfront (including £3 deposit/reserve).

Got to live on bean and toast like a student for 6 years to be able to afford it.

 

Credit houses have access to a much more up-to-date credit search history, but its just a search its not going to impact much.

PCP is coming, but the residual profile needs to be calculated - most finance houses are much less likely to trust Tesla at their word and Tesla are not guaranteeing buybacks on the the 3 as they did on the S/X.

I believe it should be within a week they will appear, I have been told representative 4.9% on a PCP - but the residuals are still not known, I suspect they won't be great - Blackhorse etc will not want to be on the hook for any pricing shenanigans if Tesla are not guaranteeing buybacks.

finger crossed then I can afford the cheese on my beans on toast.

 

The PCP option was displayed as an option by Tesla the morning the 3 first launched, I know because I saw it, and there's a screenshot somewhere online.

They removed it after an hour or so.

95% sure the GFV was £19,500 after 48 months on the following spec:

SR+
Black
Aero
White interior (can't remember if I added this or not)

Placeholder values, none of the Tesla's finance partners have it in their database.

 

Today I chased Drive-Electric about personal leases and they have no news to report.

 

Yes but 50% at 4 yrs should make for some pretty competitive PCP deals, lets hope these figures are correct.

My Leaf 30 Tekna is nearly 3 yrs old, i paid 20k Brand new for it and WBAC are offering 14k to me now, dealer offering me 14.5k as trade in on a new Leaf.These residuals are IMHO high due to to supply/demand but in 4 yrs i doubt supply will be an issue , who knows what demand will be though.

 

Pink leasing (used to be Totalmotion) sent me an email advising M3 SR+ was available at £435 ex VAT on a 9+35 lease, 10000mpa.

That works out to 4698+(35x522)= £22968 over 3 years inc VAT (77p/mile assuming you use the full 30000 allowed).

Seems a tad pricey to me but perhaps reflects a lack of confidence in EV residuals in 2022 when multiple players should be pushing volume.

(On the same advert they offer eTron 8kpa for £26027 over 3 years and 24000 miles = 108p/mile)

*corrected arithmetic, thx!*

 

not much difference from a Tesla Black Horse lease over 6 years

Surely you mean 30,000miles as it is over 36 months...which would be nearer 77p per mile

 

Sortificated thanks.
