novated lease


Recommended Posts

anyone here working in I.T and leasing their car thru novated lease or a company like prosperion??

just wanted to know if it's worth it, any benefits or savings, any negative thoughts/opinions??... any recommendations..

i've scored a new job that requires me using my car to visit client sites and was advised that getting a car thru lease would be better due to the tax benefits you get.

would appreciate some insights/thoughts into this..

cheers

Jordan

I'm looking at getting a my99 or my00 wrx with prosperion soon.Basically with them .....

The car cannot be older then 8years at the end of the lease . running costs are paid with your pre tax income so you actually pay less tax. Among other great advantages of this system the main reason I'll be taking it up is becuase of the insurance benifits. How else can a 19year old living in a western suburb of sydney get insurance on a wrx for $1200 a year :P. Also it's great for the budget challanged people like myself. All the running costs including the payment on the car is taken out each week, for example when the rego comes they send you a new label so no need to be trying to put money away for things like that.

I'm leasing my GT-T through them. Talk to JimBo he'll take care of you.

7heavn has summed it up in a nut shell....great way for people who can't budget themselves!

Prosperion give you a shell card, so if you're VERY picky on fuel brand you might wanna take this into consideration.

EDIT: oh, good thing about shell card is u can use it to buy oils for your car like g/box oil, motor oil, diff oil :uh-huh:

Also service is bundled up...u call them, they come pick up your car and bring it back :)

Thanks Guys :)

Jardan, have a quick look at http://board.performanceforums.com/forums/...readid=67141620 if you havn't seen it as yet.

As most proabably know by now, I work at Prosperion. Not only that, but I also have my vehicle through the package that we offer, so you can be assured that I have answers for any questions you have or will have in the future as I've been there and done it all before.

Whether you use the vehicle for business or not, the package we offer is beneficial in any case, even if you travel 40,000 km p/a in the vehicle to and from the Hunter Valley for personal reasons.

Not a problem Jordan .... I think I actually took a message for Jeff from you the other day, he was going to ask me to give you a call (shoulda taken out the middle man :P) but I was out of the office at the time.

I'll keep an eye on things to see how they are going and make sure Chris does his best for you.

Jimbo: is that all thats left? damn!.. so what options do I have? should I go put a deposit on one? I don't start the new job till next Monday so I still don't know if they'd do it. I will try to maybe ask them sometime this week if they would do it. blue Spec R GT sounds nice minus the gay wing :D

Yeh, there's not too many round unfortunately. It's dissapointing as we we're the largest buyer of S15 200SX in the country, they were a great car and everyone wanted them .... trying to find a suitable replacement is a little hard :D

If you start your job next Monday I'd be trying to ask your employer now about inc as part of your package, if not, first thing on Monday get us to get in contact with your employer to get things sorted out.

Are you speaking with Chris or myself at the moment in regards to the vehicle ?

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
