For those who want to buy the ultimate Christmas present, there are some seriously tempting deals. Here we bring together some of the best new car offers you can enjoy this festive season, from the most popular manufacturers.

Ford
The Ford Fiesta is hands-down the most successful seller of 2011, but that doesn't mean a good deal is out of the question. The Fiesta in Zetec trim is available on Personal Contract Hire (PCH) from £149 per month, making it very affordable.

That's based on an advance payment of £3,567 and 35 monthly payments, with an annual mileage allowance of 9,000. Extra miles are charged at 4.99 pence each and this deal is available until December 31.

Its big brother, the Ford Focus is available for £199 per month with a similar PCH contract, while the C-MAX and Grand C-MAX are available for £219 and £279 per month respectively.

Vauxhall
Vauxhall is offering a Flexible Finance package with zero per cent APR on all of its main models, including the Corsa, Meriva and Astra. You choose any deposit and then a repayment term from 24 to 60 months, at the end of which you'll own the car.

Alternatively, you could get into a Corsa 1.2 Exclusiv three-door for £182 per month on a Personal Lease after placing a deposit of £1,092. This also includes road tax for the length of the lease, as well as AA Roadside Assistance and free metallic paint.

Volkswagen
Until December 31, Volkswagen Golf Match, S and BlueMotion models are available with a free £1,500 deposit contribution and three years or 30,000 miles free servicing as part of a finance plan. Lasting for three years, monthly repayments for a Golf S 1.2 TSI would be £295.

Choose the Volkswagen Polo S and you get £500 off plus free insurance (if you're over 21). That means the 1.2-litre Polo S 60PS is available from £9,495, while the 70PS version costs from £10,890.

Audi
The chic Audi A1 is one of the 'now' cars, perfectly ticking the boxes for customers after a luxury small car. The 1.6-litre TDI Sport manual version is available to lease for a £660 deposit and 35 monthly rental payments of £220. This is based on 10,000 miles per annum, with excess mileage charged at six pence per mile.

Buyers of the Audi A4 2.0 TDI saloon should take a look at the SE Technik model. This trim level adds Milano leather upholstery, DVD sat-nav, Audi Music Interface and Audi parking system plus for £1,100 - far less than the standard cost of adding these extras and a certain way to improve its resale value. This offer is available until March 31 2012.

Nissan
The Nissan Juke is available with Advantage Nissan, a zero-APR Hire Purchase scheme which includes three years' Nissan Roadside Assistance and three years' servicing for £249. The Juke Acenta Premium 1.6-litre with front-wheel drive costs from £299 per month for 36 months after a customer deposit of £4,731.

Advantage Nissan can also be applied to the Qashqai N-TEC 1.6-litre with front-wheel drive. It costs from £379 per month over 36 months with a deposit of £6,201.

BMW
The BMW 1-Series hatchback is available in a Performance Edition trim level to celebrate the London Olympics. For £1,500 over the cost of the ES model you'll get up to £3,225 worth of additional equipment including M aerodynamic bodystyling, 18-inch Dark Chrome alloy wheels, high-gloss Shadowline exterior trim, Dark Chrome tailpipe, Dark Line rear lights, M Sport suspension, London 2012 exterior badges, sports seats, Anthracite headlining, M Sport multi-function leather steering wheel, M Sport gearshift lever, floor mats and door sill finishers.

Peugeot
The Peugeot 107 city car is available on the road from £7,195, with a £1,500 saving. Alternatively the same model is available on a Passport Personal Lease scheme, secured by an initial rental payment of £1,254 and 46 monthly rental payments of £119 (With an annual mileage of 6,000). An optional final rental of £2,370 buys the car outright.

Mercedes
Upgrade a Mercedes C-Class saloon trim level from Elegance to Sport and you could save up to £1,700 in upgrades. You'll get AMG bodystyling, a three-louvre grille, 18-inch AMG alloy wheels, bi-xenon headlights, LED daytime running lights, AMG sports steering wheel, brushed aluminium interior trim, Artico upholstery and a black roof lining.

Toyota
The latest Toyota Yaris TR hatchback is available from £169 per month for 34 months, after a £2,093.40 deposit. An optional final payment of £4,251 will buy the car outright. It's fitted with 15-inch alloy wheels, air-con, Toyota Touch&Go Multimedia system, rear-view camera and a Bluetooth connection.

Hyundai
The Hyundai i20 Classic 1.2 is available from £8,295 including a customer saving of £1,600, while Comfort models get £1,750 off their normal price.
