We’re open for business over Christmas! (We are closed Xmas, Boxing and New Year’s Days and from 2pm Xmas and New Year’s Eve)
The DS 3 is a luxurious compact crossover powered by a frugal petrol engine and which competes with rivals like the Audi Q2, Ford Puma, Skoda Kamiq, and the Peugeot 2008.
Refreshed and revamped in 2023, the traditionally-fuelled DS 3 sits alongside the fully-electric DS 3 E-Tense in the French manufacturer’s range.
A DS 3 lease comes generously equipped as standard, with LED headlamps, lane keep assist, traffic sign recognition, and an active safety brake all standard-fit.

The distinctive DS 3 marks the entry point into the DS leasing range, sitting behind the larger DS 4 crossover and DS 7 SUV.
The DS 3 hatchback has previously been known as the DS 3 ‘Crossback’, though that ‘Crossback’ title was jettisoned in 2023 to simplify the offering.
DS says its ‘3’ has been built with ‘refinement’ in mind. The modern exterior features flush-fitting door handles and invisible exterior window seals in order to elevate the DS 3 above other crossovers in the leasing market.
The cabin should also prove exceptionally comfortable, coming with plush, premium seats, an ergonomic steering wheel, and a large 10.3-inch infotainment touch screen.
The ‘PureTech 130’ petrol engine has power of 131 hp, comes mated to an automatic gearbox, and is capable of returning close to 50 miles to the gallon, which should help to lower your fuel bills.
Meanwhile a self-charging ‘HYBRID’ powertrain, introduced in 2024, marries a 1.2-litre petrol engine with a 28hp electric motor to offer improved performance, lower CO2 emissions and increased fuel efficiency.

In simple terms, leasing is the single most cost-effective and hassle free method of driving a brand-new car, and with Select Car Leasing you can be sure that you are in safe hands.
I could not recommend Select enough and the amazing service I had from my consultant Shane Newton. Shane regularly updated me on progress of my new vehicle, and was always so helpful in answering any queries I had regarding my order throughout the whole process - no question was silly - he always responded promptly whether that be through email or phone call. I just received my new vehicle last week, and Shane was in contact right away to ensure the handover was seamless and that I was happy with my new vehicle! Needless to say I was very happy with the earlier than anticipated delivery - Christmas has came early! This is my second vehicle with Select and yet another excellent service. I could not fault anything and want to thank Shane once again for all of his help!
Never leased a car before this and the staff were so helpful and friendly. They helped me through the process and kept in regular contact to make sure everything was going OK. Were able to answer all my questions and were personalised with their customer service. I felt like we were having conversations rather than being a number going through a box ticking exercise.
My second lease via Select. David has dealt with my order and been very helpful and responsive throughout. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend!
