Leasing instead of buying

[m62902]

Can anyone explain what the main benefits would be to me, as a private car-owner, of leasing a vehicle instead of owning it?
I heard a program on Radio4 recently which was suggesting this would be a good idea for most people but I don't understand the reasons for doing so.

I would imagine that the benefit is that if it goes wrong and you don't own it that repairs will be paid for.

if you always want a new (ish) car then i would recommend getting a lease car as you dont lose from the depreciation of the car.
try this they do do private lease
