All makes of cars are jumping. I was reading a new Vauxhall Corsa has gone up 30%.
Parts manufacturers, suppliers and raw materials are all increasing in cost.

You should apply to be ambassador of the EV revolution. Amazing take.

Yikes. Was thinking the other day of getting a Model Y to replace my ICE car… don’t think I’ll be doing that any more

Wow, those prices are nuts.
I might offend some people in here by saying this, but the M3 LR is not a £60k car in my opinion - I didn't even think it was really a £50k car.
Hopefully supply chain problems for all manufacturers will ease in the next year or so and prices will come back down.

Agreed.
It was a £46k car when I got mine!
Inflation is heading to 11%, interest rates are now shooting - mortgage rates are already at 4% vs 2% in spring, the stock markets must have lost trillions over the last few days, and with Russia now ready to cut off gas supplies to Europe who knows what the next 6 months will bring.
If you are worrying about brand car prices right now than I would say you are doing very well for your self, and really there is nothing for you to worry about
.What a crappy comment to make. What’s wrong with people being able to lease one if they want?
The AA need to sack their finance broker! That's cheaper than any mortgage product on offer, personal loans normally cost at least 1-2% more than mortgages.
That’s why I took it out. My bank RBS a few weeks ago were 3.4% and then requoted 7.9%. Didn’t check any others.
Too many peasants on the road prancing around like they own one

5-million people in the U.K. drive leased vehicles. 1.9 million are personal leases. @Liquidv you must dislike a lot of people! 
With pre-tax incentives it makes financial sense if you need a car.
I would have leased mine as it was an unknown entity for me. I bought so I could sell it without being locked in.

I heard a saying “too many Bentley cars with Skoda money” (it was a long time ago because Skoda’s make good cars now!)
With the M3 prices pushing towards £50k I wouldn’t be surprised if Tesla introduce a their new baby/smaller in a few years, priced at a “budget friendly” £40K price point.
They’ll retain healthy margins. More customers get to drive a Tesla and with the smaller batteries Tesla will see increased revenue from their super chargers.
