Well the 4 year lease on this car is over in June. I can buy it for £8,825 or walk away, what would you do with 90k on the clock? She prob needs a new cam belt but the lease co not interested at mo, although they did just get stung for 4 new 18" boots

So, you've got 4 new tyres on a car you're obviously happy with, around £300 will get you a new cambelt and water pump - no brainer - buy it.

So it's an elegance twin door? What engine?

Why not just lease another car if you paid £20.000 for that one its only cost you £50 a week over the last four years plus you would have a new warranty 7 years if you lease a KIA or for life with a vauxall.then at the end of the new lease the car would still have a warranty.and the price they are asking is not cheap you would get the same car for that price any where

Car:

Superb II TDI 170 Elegance, Steel Grey, Park Assist, Sunset, Blinds, Rear Bum Warmers, Luna Alloys

If you’re happy with the car then buy it, it doesn’t seem a bad price and it is a decent spec, sure you can probably get on cheaper BUT you know the history of the car and that IMO is worth a lot…. get the belt, and pump done though.

Thanks for comments, I must be honest, one day i'm going to buy it, next day I fancy a change! Defo got to opt out of company car scheme though, cos only ford or vauxhall to choose from now due to silly company policy! Could stretch budget to £20k over 5 years if go for nearly new. A new Octy III is tempting or another Superb but also thinking about a Mondeo 2.2 Tdi Tit X Sport Nav, can get them for £20k with little more than delivery miles, massive spec and almost 200 horses!

KIA's 7 years warranty is not a very good one - a lot of exclusions in later years. And Vauxhalls is only for 100k miles, so it's not really for life

...I was looking at the vauxhall network q site and most of them only have 3 year warranty or balance thereof, the 100k or lifetime, whichever comes first, only applies if you buy new or with less than 100 miles on clock and the first owner must not have been for rental, what a con!

Never had a problem with Kia warranty - EGR Valve replaced on at just under 4 years on mam's old Sportage - and Suspension bushes replaced on wife's Cee'd at 48,000 miles, just before it was 5... we've still got the Cee'd and will be 6 later on this year.

With the Superb, I Claimed on It's warranty for re-sprray of the bumper. - Nothing mechanical. - It's 3 in April so will go in for MOT and service just before, so if it needs anything, it will get it.

What about Hyundai with the 5 year unlimited - I did consider the new SantaFa, and although it was nice, for the same price, bought a EClass 250 CDi AMG Sport Estate!
