Is the Dacia Sandero the most affordable car in the UK?

Dacia has announced a leasing deal for its Sandero supermini, with monthly repayments of £69.

The Dacia Dimensions PCP scheme allows buyers to put down a deposit of £1,845, followed by 48 monthly payments of £69. Alternatively, buyers can put down a £699 deposit and pay £99 per month.

The Dacia Sandero is the UK’s cheapest new car, with the entry-level Access model priced from just £5,995. That doesn’t include air-con, electric windows, central locking or even a radio.

Dacia also offers the Duster off-roader, priced from £8,995. It’s available on the Dimensions PCP scheme, too, allowing buyers to pay £99 per month for 48 months following a £3,179 deposit.

Like the Sandero, the cheapest Duster you can buy comes sparsely equipped, with black plastic bumpers and no radio. More expensive Laureate variants come more generously specified, featuring luxuries like air-con and central locking.

Alternatively, both cars can be pre-ordered for a refundable deposit of £100, with deliveries beginning in 2013. All Dacias include a three-year/60,000-mile warranty, but buyers can upgrade to five-year/60,000-mile or seven-year/100,000-mile options.
