demo lease question
I was interested in a XF awd vehicle at my local dealer. It has 200 miles on it, because it was used as a demo. When I started to talk about the lease terms, he wrote me the following:
Unfortunately we can not lease this car as due to the fact that we started the clock on the car meaning we entered it as a dealer demo.
He said the car has never been titled, but, they will not lease it because they "started the clock" as a demo. That struck me as strange. Any idea what is going on here.

Is the XF you are looking at a 2.0 model?

Sounds like they would rather sell it than lease it for some strange reason. If they are going to sell it as new, then the warranty must start from zero. Logic would dictate that if that is so, then it should be able to be leased as well with a zero start warranty (i.e. the 200 miles would be added to the 50,000 mile warranty period. and the warranty time would be the full 4 years.). Ask a dealer in Albany or NYC about it.

Not sure what the issue with leasing the vehicle is though. Maybe they can't lease vehicles that already have an in-service date?
