Friday I ordered my Mini f55 from the via the ordering tool of the company car dealer.
As I waited long time (3weeks) before the F55 was in the system I put in all options of the F56 to see what I would like to have. And as the second hand market for 5 door cars is better I expected not much difference in lease pricing.
Well, I was wrong. For a Golf TDI the 5 doors allowed me to put 1250 euro in options before I got the notification that my lease budget was depleted, vs 3 doors version.
With the F56 I had to take of 1000 euro's in option of the car to stay within budget. So for some reason the lease company does not think that the value of a 5 doors mini is not the same, but even less than that of the 3 doors F56.
Surprised.
