    I have a customer who bought Toyota Echo using salary sacrifice scheme and I did a couple of services for him when the car was new, nobody hassled me to agree to a set price all I had to do to give them a call and tell them what and for how much would be done. Than I waited a month for my money, so I told him to go elsewhere. When the lease run out he came back to me with the same car (he sold it to his son), done 110,000km approx. lets say the condition of the engine wasn't that good.
    I would suggest, at the end of the lease do not buy the car, get another one.

    Small percentage by no means, they were looking for 20-25% discount. Just another way they make money I guess, I must say I'm very sceptical about the salary sacrifice thing but let's not hijack the thread too much hehe.

    I will stay mute on the topic, well mostly...so far it has worked out quite well for me, however I feel I have my arms tied, eg. flashing and the consequences of warranty. I will be interested to see the difference between sal/sac 'recommended' service centres and other (personally preferred) centres. I will repost soon. I have to admit that fuel cards are ace for the fiscally irresponsible...
