So...I go with daughter today to hand back lease car shes had for 4 years. Balloon payment of 4.5k too much for a fiat500. Its only got 8500 on the clock do hardly used.

Inspection guy looks it over then presents bill of 700! Wheels scuffed....they're good for a 4 yo car and stilllook great..tyre cracked...had its mot 2 days ago and all legal...needs interior valet...was pro valetted last week and.....a piece of bird **** on the roof.

We refusec to sign the inspection off at which point the guy got aggressive and called me an overprotective dad!! I was only there to give her a lift home...maybe it was because i laughed out loud at the bird **** issue.

So..beware. make sure your leased car is in mint showroom condition before return....and keep.it away from seagulls. 🤬🤬
