1st time lease return, what to expect?

[jhb]

My Lease is up in 4 months. I have already started thinking about what to do with the truck (2012 x5 50, 30k miles). The buyout is about 45k per lease agreement and I think there is a 350.00 disposition fee.

The front tires are shot, and I need to measure the remaining tread in the rears. I assume from what I read here there will be NO allowance on the wheels if I re-sign another lease so that needs to be done. Correct?

Is the $350 disposition fee the kind of thing they forgive if I sign another lease?

There is a rather large scratch from my sons bicycle handle bar between the front wheel well and the headlight lens, It is "bigger than a quarter", what can I expect them to do about that? I don't want them to tell me at lease-end they want to charge me a bazillion dollars for a repair that I could have done somewhere else for less.

I have looked at pricing for CPO 50, and its not favorable to me to buy out the lease. I see them advertised between 43-49, and we're still a bit off.

Does BMWFS try to buy out leases early as I have heard other car companies do to try and get me into a new vehicle?

TIA
