May I grab your thoughts on climbing upwards through the models and years when financing the passion through corporate leasing... I noticed Safrane's comments that current models run similar to today's standard cars, provided all schedule maintenance is carried out. I am hesitant about the 2005s age and 42,000klms...however it is within my budget. As I see it my options are.... Purchase the 2005 CC, add 10klms per year, conduct all scheduled maintenance and associated repairs for 2 years, then trade in to scale upwards to the 2008 Or, extend myself straight-up to the 2008, 20,000klms...conduct all scheduled services, hopefully manage less repair work and take a risk on the depreciated residual across 5 years... My aim is to try and keep the finance costs in-line with my budget....I don't necessarily see the repair kitty would change, I'm budgeting AUD$8k a year to set aside towards standard and non standard work... I know this is a difficult question...I'm just looking for advice from those who may have approached their purchases in a similar manner... I'm moving out of my Giugiaro Alpha Romeo Berra b/c they've stopped making them. I only like the masa's & just need the best route to work my way into them... Thank you
