Leasing

Leasing is similar to renting, you will be able to enjoy a new MINI for 2 to 3 years without a long-term commitment. If you enjoy getting a new vehicle with the latest performance, amenities, and technology, leasing would be a great option for you. In addition to no long-term commitment, leasing also offers short-term savings, as you only pay for the portion of the MINI that you use during your lease term! The down payment for a lease is significantly less than financing, and monthly payments are typically lower as well. At the end of your lease, you can choose from a lease-end option that will ensure you get exactly what you’re looking for going forward. At the end of your MINI lease, you can lease a new MINI, buy your current lease, or simply return your MINI and walk away. Continuing to lease may result in a higher long-term cost, and if you choose to finance, our team will ensure you get a competitive financing rate.

Leasing Benefits

• You have the opportunity to get behind the wheel of a new MINI every 2 to 3 years.
• Lower down payment and monthly payment than financing.
• Lease-end options are diverse and uncomplicated. You can choose from leasing a new MINI, buying your leased MINI, or returning your MINI.
• A factory warranty covers major repairs for the duration of your lease term, saving you money on repairs, service, and maintenance.

Leasing Disadvantages

• When you lease your contract will include mileage limitations. If you exceed the mileage limitations, you will be charged for every additional mile at the end of your lease.
• You can not customize or alter your leased MINI.
• If your MINI has excessive wear, you will be charged at the end of your lease.
• You will not be able to trade in or sell your MINI.

Financing

Financing a new MINI offers a long-term investment that will result in full ownership of your MINI. Financing is more of an upfront cost, and you may have to take out a loan to fulfill the cost and fees, but when your payments are complete, you will no longer have monthly payments. Buying a MINI will allow you to sell it at any time and drive without payments, and have no restrictions on what you can do with your MINI. When you buy a MINI, you will also unlock a range of ownership benefits. MINI ownership benefits include complimentary maintenance for 3 years or 36,000 miles, roadside assistance, a 4-year or 50,000-mile limited warranty, and a 12-year unlimited mileage rust protection warranty.

Financing Benefits

• When you finance a MINI, it will become an asset when it is paid off.
• There are no mileage limitations on financed MINIs.
• Cincinnati MINI has close relationships with our lender options, ensuring you will receive the best financing rate on your MINI purchase.
• When paid off, you own your MINI and can sell or trade-in.
• Financing offers long-term savings, once your loan is paid off you will have no monthly payments.

Financing Disadvantages

• Financing a MINI includes higher monthly payments and a higher down payment at the time of purchase.
• At the end of your 4-year/50,000-mile warranty, you will have to pay for any damages or out-of-warranty repairs.
• There is no way to determine your MINI’s depreciation and resale value. You can estimate your MINI’s resale value, but there are no guarantees on the price you will get.
