It’s not often we get car envy here at CarLease UK. However, this beauty, the Jaguar F-PACE DIESEL ESTATE 3.0d V6 S 5dr Auto AWD, (browse deals) definitely brought out the green-eyed monster. While we supplied a number of the F-Pace during 2016, we have predominantly been delivering the 2.0d (180ps) model which you can get as either a Prestige, R-Sport or Portfolio. In terms of a luxury SUV, this has to be one of the leading contenders on most company car driver’s lists. Based on the engine and car value, this isn’t going to be a an option for the younger leasing driver (Sorry!!)
Our existing customer, based locally in St Helens, Merseyside, had the option of a company car or a car allowance. This can present a difficult decision for most drivers as they need to weigh-up the benefit of leasing a car through the company, which effectively means paying company car tax or, as many companies are leaning towards, going down the car allowance route (this is still subject to the income tax but not company car tax rules). There are a number of practical and financial considerations and while we can assist you in making a decisions, it will almost certainly depend on your individual circumstances.
The car pictured here is one of the most luxurious vehicles within the Jaguar range. With a reversing camera, InControl navigation, xenon headlights, heated front seats, front parking aid, lane departure warning, Bluetooth, “S” body kit, folding mirrors, rear parking aid and 20” alloys as standard, some people might order the standard option. However, with considerable discount, we were able to offer a little more to our customer, a high-mileage driver, and they elected to go for some of the amazing features below:
Manufacturer options:
· Metallic Paint
· Perforated taurus sports leather – Jet/red
· Mesh aluminium veneer
· Jet headlining
· 22″ Double Helix 15-spoke Gloss Black finish with dark inserts
· Panoramic sliding sunroof (with black roof rails)
· InControl touch pro pack with 380W – F-Pace
· 14 way electric sports front seats with 4 way lumbar
· Cold climate pack – F-Pace
· Practicality pack – F-Pace
· Privacy glass
· Chrome window surround
Dealer-Fit options:
· Luggage liner
· Rubber Mats
All-in-all, we think you would agree this is a beautiful vehicle. However, would this be enough to tempt you away from the class-leading Range Rover Sport or the slightly cheaper alternatives in the Audi Q7, BMW X5 and Mercedes GLE?
