        You can also buy the car at the end of the lease, can’t you? Definitely an option in my country, a lot of people just choose not to exercise it.

        Car loans tend to have about 13-20% interest while leases have like 1.5-2% + 6 mon euribor, so a lease is preferable any day of the week, it’ll save you several thousand over the usual 5 year term.

      Yes I get the point but I guess it depends on you considering a car a luxury or a requirement. Where I live, it’s definitely a luxury - we’ve got great public transport.
