Alfa Romeo Mito challenges MINI

Looks fantastic and value for money with Italian charm thrown in.

More and more of these super little Alfa’s are appearing on the roads in the UK, not as many yet as the BMW MINI but then the MINI has been around for a good few years but the Alfa is in the competition to win your heart and with great Alfa Romeo leasing deals on at present now could be the time to get a little head turner

Nice line up of engines in true alfa romeo style, with choices of a free revving 1.4 ltr unit which will either pump out 95bhp, 120bhp or 155bhp which is enough to put a strong smile on your face! They also supply a couple of diesels but my money is on the petrol version

Oh and air conditioning is standard on every vehicle so not only will you look cool you will be cool and is you go for a car lease option then you will be having your cake and eating it as my old grandfather used to say.

Koenigsegg buys Saab Cars!!

I woke up this morning and thought it was an April fool, but after checking my calendar and re reading the news that GM cars are clearing out the brands quicker than a car boot sale on a sunny day in June! The fantastic people at Koenigsegg have come to a deal to buy the saab car manufacturer from GM cars, not seen the price and how it is structured, but it must be exciting news to see a small specialist manufacturer buy a brand like saab. Personally I can’t wait to see what they do to the design and brand, I wonder if the cost of saab cars will be a million pound plus, if so the majority would be looking at saab car leasing as a more practical way of getting behind the wheel

The New Ford Capri

The Ford Capri was my Uncle’s favourite car in the 70’s and 80’s. From memory he had 3 of them and cherished them and repaired them well beyond the financial worth.  That was in the day before Ford Capri Leasing!!

So the other day i called round and he was reading that Ford are bringing the iconic car back, OK it won’t have the long bonnet but from the mock up images it looks so good that I could be following in my uncles footsteps and getting one in 2010!

I reckon they will sell like hotcakes.

More reasons to smile when you see the engine range which includes a New turbocharged EcoBoost powerplants will be available, with most cars getting a 1.6-litre petrol, producing 148bhp or 178bhp.

A new 1.6 TDCi diesel will also debut, giving up to 128bhp, alongside a flagship 2.0-litre with 168bhp or 197bhp. You never had a diesel in the original, how times change! All these units will combine pace with superb fuel economy and low CO2 emissions. And helping the Focus Coupé to be even more efficient will be the option of a Powershift twin-clutch gearbox. This will be offered in addition to a standard-fit manual transmission. Stop-start technology is also expected to be rolled out across the line-up. So a fully kitted out Ford Capri with lots of goodies but the question is how much and what sort of car leasing deals can we put together?
