German made cars are well known for their execllent quality, touruey efficient powerplants and cool but understated looks, all the things an average person would look for in a car leasing plan. Long standing giants of the motoring industry Mecedes, BMW and VW have recently been having to share their success with Audi who have been gathering clout over the past ten years. Audi has always made great motors but it’s sharp increase in popularity is connected with its buyout by VolksWagen, pumping money into the research and development side of the company VW has hauled Audi up to peak of the automotive industry, improving great on interior quality and range.
Audi recently debuted it’s first true performance vehicle the impressive R8, this really marked the makes entrance into a prestige motoring, manufactuering a model which received widespread praise in the press and which was desirable and flashy enough to stand alongside Lambourginis and Masteratis. At the start of the nineties Audi was considered a niche brand catering to four-wheel-drive enthusiasts with its rally car-inspired 44 Quattro range, now Audi contract hire plans are all over the place and it is almost impossible to go out onto UK roads without spotting the famous four ringed badge.Interestingly the top German manfacturers still have a fairly equal shares of the market, they have all had to branch out in order to contest the market and all offer a small family hatch back as part of their line up. BMW is highly revered in the looks department, every model has sleek, angular lines that create the ideal balance between subtlety and leariness. Mercedes arguably make the most sought-after high end supercars such as the SLR and most recently the retro-styled SLS. With car leasing deals so widespread now this means most working people can afford a German marquee meaning they are no longer priced out the market.
