Planning to lease a bmw for the first time. Is the inspection at the end of lease very detailed ? like in terms of scratches, dings, dents etc not planning to get intentionally 😁 but iam worried that for a leased car i would have to drive it more carefully and maintain it really well as compared to if had financed/ bought the same.
Thanks !

Someone I know returned a BMW lease and decided not to renew. The car was in great condition. BMW tried to charge them 10k in fines. They got it down to 4 but be careful.

Be there during the inspection and fix the issues yourself before handing it back in. People on here recommended doing that for leases.

Return early? Or normal time? What were the 10k charges? So many questions

I know as a general point across brands, if you lease another car as you turn in a lease, they’ll be much more lenient with wear and tear.
