Peugeot

Just a quick post.  We leased a vehicle in France.  The lease buy-back program through Peugeot is pretty amazing.  In France there is a 20% VAT on the purchase of new vehicles.  If the manufacturer leases the vehicle to a tourist first [for at least 21 days] they can sell it after that lease period without the tax.  Accordingly, we get a brand new vehicle for a very reasonable price.  We chose the Peugeot Partner:


It is manual, which is exciting!!  Peugeot provides insurance and roadside maintenance throughout Europe during the lease period.  The only stressful prospect is driving in Europe.
