There's no pooling of risk, so you are at risk to the individual borrowers you finance. Buy2Letcars will pick up shortfalls to 85%, but only out of their resources.

I assume it's a legitimate operation and not just a pyramid scheme as some other leasing schemes have alleged to have been.

heavily advertised to older media users (print is where I've seen it).
A recipe for disaster I would suggest - and I'm not tempted by the 11% promise

The cost of leasing a car is around double that from a regular car leasing site , ie clients will have poor credit history.

This is likely to be a very high risk investment.....

They have a 100% payment record to investors over several years, so that gives me reassurance.

Any other insights into Buy2LetCars?

11% returns? That's all you need to know. Definitely not for me!

What car would you get for that? It had been my impression that £ 199 a month could get you something quite flashy.

If you think a Ford Fiesta is flashy, perhaps.
