Trial and error until the DAS matched the dealer quote.

Honestly after talking to multiple dealers actively and aggressively for almost 2 weeks, the deal you got sounds like an extinct unicorn in this covid world. But then again Iām a relative newbie with leases (and with Velar am in particularly dangerous territory).
The feedback and info on this forum has been so valuable, thanks a lot. Will keep you posted on how bad of a deal I make (if I do).
Dear experts - Hoping to sense check one quick point with you. The dealership said the loaner (with 8200 miles on it) would be āuncertifiedā, thatās one way for them to keep the cost of the car down. I am told by the dealership that for purposes of my 36 month lease having this certification doesnāt matter because throughout the term of the lease this car would remain under factory warranty. So it would only be someone who is buying the car that would care about it being certified (i.e. warranty being extended beyond the factory warranty).
This sounds OK to me but wanted to check whether this raises any red flags for you, the experts. Thank you!
That makes me think theyāre considering this a used car, not a loaner.
I guess I donāt care whether they consider it used or a loaner at 8500 miles. I just want to make sure that I am not losing any coverage or protection if the car is leased āuncertifiedā.
There is no such thing as a certified vs uncertified loaner that Iām aware of. Certified usually refers to something being a cpo, which isnāt an option if weāre talking about leasing a loaner. If we arenāt talking about leasing a loaner, then comparing deals against new/loaners is questionable.
Hmm in the carfax report it states the car was titled / registered as a ācorporate fleet vehicleā with one owner. Not sure if that points towards it being a loaner or not. But regardless I guess Iām wondering why from a lease cost analysis perspective I would care if itās a loaner with 8200 miles or a used car with 8200 miles?
The short answer is new car lease programs donāt apply to used cars. Itās the sort of thing that would make me nervous about getting to the dealer and having the deal changed on me.
Itās likely an MSO (driven by a JLR Corporate Employee) - theyāre leasable.
