Can you lease a BMW 3 Series with no money down?
You pay an initial rental instead of a deposit when taking out a lease agreement. Your initial rental forms part of the lease contract and is your first payment.
Your initial rental can be tailored to suit your requirements and budget when leasing a BMW. Most customers choose an initial rental equivalent to three or six-month monthly rentals to help keep their monthly rentals cheaper. Still, you can also select an initial rental as one monthly rental upfront to help keep payments down.
