My fully loaded (£8K of options) 2.0d msport that went back after the 3 year lease landed at a car supermarket in London - it was sold before they even got chance to get proper photos up on their website - it went for £24K.

My lease is a lot more per month than yours but I am on a 3 year plan with 18000 miles per annum, I also put on quite a few options as I spend alot of time driving it - list price if bought new without finance would have been circa £46K. The way I look at I would never be able to afford to buy new so the lease option bests suits me and after the 3 years hand it back and have something else, all servicing costs covered and warranty takes care of the rest during my ownership.
