I can get a Skoda Superb Greenline TDI for £250 inc vat pcm on a 2 year personal lease of 20K mpa.
This is the cheap to run Ecodiesel version with mpg of 67.3 extra urban-my usual type of driving and mixed 55.4mpg compared to my 25-30mpg in the Omega.
This includes tax and Euro breakdown cover, but not maintenance which would be one service of £230 and maybe 2 tyres, say £160, plus misc say;
Total maintenance of £400.
Lease cost over 2 years £6400
£1815 fuel (20k miles at 55mpg, 363 gall @ £5)
Total £8215.
Omega over 2 years 20k miles
28mpg= 714 gall; £3571 fuel
Road tax £380
Breakdown cover Europe £200
MOTs £90
Servicing, tyres, maintenance, repairs; lets be kind and say £2500 over 2 years (spent 2k+ in 3 mths!!)
Total £6651
Difference £1564 or £65 per month to drive a brand new 5* crash rated car with full warranty.
Insurance same price for me.
Am I missing something?
At present I am spending over £65 per month in Omega related phone calls and fuel to get to repair places and club members, plus approx 50 hours per month trying to keep it going.
(For the pedants

, the figures are simple and approx for comparison, eg mpg and £5 gallon, maintenance costs)
I know the Superb will be seen as a down trade by some, but I like them and they fit our needs well-and would be less hassle.
What do you think?
