What are the best cars to lease in summer 2021?
21 Jun 2021
Summer 2021 is here and what better way to spend your sunny afternoons than going for a drive along the beautiful country roads? With dry roads and the blue skies (for now at least) now is the perfect time to get behind the wheel. If you are thinking of leasing a new car for you to enjoy this summer, keep reading.
Leasing your next car will offer you an elegant solution to driving off in a new motor without the huge upfront cost. With leasing, you will pay an initial payment followed by a series of monthly payments until your contract is up. If you’re wanting to bring down your monthly payments, need a car that is still covered by the manufacturer’s warranty period or you just like the idea of having a new car every few years then leasing could be the best option for you! Begin your search for your brand new car with our list of summer favourites below...
MINI Convertible
The MINI Convertible is the definition of fun on four wheels. If you’re reading this in the UK and by some miracle the sun happens to be shining, you’ve definitely struck it lucky, and it’s on days like these that the Mini Convertible shines brightest.
With the British supermini, you have the ability to drive rain or shine with its nifty convertible roof. Available with a range of engines, the MINI can be an affordable or performance choice, depending on budget and requirements. If you’re looking to keep things relatively cheap then the entry-level Cooper is the car for you. If you’d like to splash out a little more then you might want to take a look at the seriously nippy 230bhp John Cooper Works model.

Toyota Yaris
The fourth-generation Toyota Yaris was designed to be electrified, and the hybrid 1.5-litre three-cylinder engine gets a boost by a battery that’s smaller yet somehow more powerful than those in earlier generations of the Yaris Hybrid. That’s not even the most interesting part, the Yaris is only available with an automatic gearbox.
If you like to spend your summers driving along the UK countryside’s winding roads then the Yaris will feel right at home. With this little hybrid, you get a reasonable amount of grip and great handling too.
Porsche 911 Targa
Who, at some point, hasn’t dreamt of driving with the top down in a Porsche? The Porsche 911 Targa is a full convertible and still manages to offer a ‘best-of-both-worlds to drivers. Porsche has said that the new Targa has ‘more powerful roof actuators’ but according to Top Gear…
“The folding origami dance still takes 19 seconds, and you still can’t do it on the move because the massive rear clamshell hangs over the back of the car in the process” (source: https://www.topgear.com/car-news/first-look/new-porsche-911-targa-here-question-your-priorities)
With this being said, The 911 Targa has the practicality of the coupe, but the ability to have a considerable amount of space open above your heads for convertible-style driving. Perfect for a summer drive, right? And all the better to hear that flat-six engine.
BMW 2 Series Convertible
Now you’d be excused for questioning why we would include an open-top motor into the list for a nation of drivers that experience such unpredictable weather. However, when it comes to BMW, we couldn’t ignore it. The list of two-seat roadsters is significantly longer than the list of small premium four-seat open-tops but sitting at the TOP of that list is the BMW 2 Series Convertible.
The BMW 2 Series Convertible delivers an exciting driving experience. Its sleek, sharp exterior style also perfectly matches its practical interior and mixed with the safe handling of the car means it is a great lease choice for buyers who want something a little sporty.
Mazda MX 5
The infamous Mazda MX 5 is arguably one of the most recognisable sports cars on the planet. This sleek, sporty car is one of the biggest selling roadsters on the planet. Guinness certified, too.
The award-winning Mazda MX-5 has it all. Bold and striking good looks, powerful engine, and a big name to go with it. If you are a driver that wants power and performance without breaking the bank then the MX-5 is the ideal convertible for you. This little roadster is ideal for those who like to take long drives along winding country roads or long strips of tarmac along the UK coastline.
