Signing a new leasing agreement can be really worrying particularly if you have never gone into a showroom and leased a car before as you decided to avoid leasing and own your car instead.

For instance, you may not have a full grasp of all of the leasing terms or you could be unclear about the whole process of finding the right vehicle and then signing a deal. Or you might not know much about the array of leasing options that are currently on offer.

Therefore, if the above sounds a little familiar and you are in need of a new leased car then here are some guidelines to make your decision a little easier.

1) Firstly, take the time to get prepared. This means that you need to way up the options and decide whether leasing is the most appropriate option both now and maybe even five years in the future. Once you have made this decision start to research the car that you might want to lease. You want to take the time to think about available option that you are interested in from a car, for instance: seats, doors, interiors, body shape, colour and if the car will match your way of life.

2) Then, you need to brush up on some of the leasing terms so that you don't become bamboozled with the terms, for instance money factor (interest formula), capitalised cost (the car price) and residual value (value of the car at the end of the lease). You should then work out the value of your monthly fees and payments, which you can afford or would like to pay. All of this information is readily available on the internet and if you happen to be using the internet to hire a car then read through the site before you agree on your car and drive off the forecourt.

3) However, do not take monthly payments at face value as they are not as important as you may think. What I mean to say is that the monthly leasing fee is not always a good guide to value, because lower fees in most cases will mean you will need to lease the car for a much longer amount of time. If you take the time to work out the total costs over the leasing term then chances are that it may be about the same amount, so don't be swayed by initial figures. What this means is that if leasing costs seem high then you need to you need to consider what else they may be providing you with.

4) If promotions are available then you really should make the most of them. If you take the time to do this then you will be able to lower the overall fees of the model, as well as the leasing fee per month. Determine if there are any promotions on at the moment and which car leasing companies they are available with. You should also take time to work whether a particular manufacturer or a new model is easier to afford at the moment. For example, there are a few Seat leasing deals are quite reasonable at the moment.

5) When looking at cars keep in mind what it is that you are looking for. Don't be wowed by the first car that you are taking out for a test drive or the latest model on the forecourt. Perhaps it is a better idea to hone in on the extra features that you require from your new leased model and then only agree to a deal for a vehicle that has those features.

If you follow these five tips deciding which is the right vehicle to lease should be really easy and you will then be able to locate the most suitable car for your lifestyle, whatever the model.
