Conti car ownership rule #1, sell after warranty ends. After warranty ends all count on luck. Lucky and that thing lasts but if unlucky it's gonna be money pit.

I'm not sure what are the available leasing options for luxury brands in Malaysia, but as far as I know Merc's agility financing (quite similar to leasing) works out to be more expensive, unless you're sticking to Merc forever.

Anyone is welcome to correct me if I'm wrong, since I'm a true believer in the traditional Hire Purchase way since I prefer putting down big down payment for my car

BMW and Volvo also offering the leasing programme now with the so-called Guarantee Future Value. Just wondering if to change every 5 years, which one makes more sense financially wise

If it make any sense, why would a company design a leasing plan which make them lose money

And if you leave, they'd make sure they've ripped you enough to make a handsome profit.
