Lease or buy a car as a driving instructor? Secret tips!

[@MrDenial]

Helpful and well timed video for me (as someone looking at getting a new car) It was refreshing to hear your experience with leasing - based on your experience I agree buying is the better choice but everyone’s circumstances are different, at the end of the day you got your money’s worth with the Fiesta and I’m sure it served you well!

20 plus years now as an ADI always bought 2nd hand diesel fiestas current one still on same clutch at 130k. My son has one of my older fiestas 270k on the clock. I'm lucky as i do my own maintenance and repairs oil and filters changes every 10k.

Just to add, the 50% voluntary termination is available on HP and PCP finance too.

I being a driving instructor changed my clutch first time after 78000 miles and that was when I was feeling the clutch pedal comes up a lot before reaching the biting point. I changed it because I didn’t want it to die when a pupil is on the test.

How much did your clutch cost? I asked at a Ford garage and they said about £800 and maybe more for some extras.
