It's the blooming LCT I don't want to pay (geez 33% is a bit rich don't you think?)

You'd be surprised at how many options you can get on an X1 23d before you pass the LCT threshold. If you look at my proposed spec, it's only $909 worth of LCT in all of that. Due to all the diesel model meeting fuel efficiency targets, the LCT threshold is increased to $75,375 and you only pay 33% on the difference between you price and that.
As to your leasing question, I know when you salary sacrifice, you don't pay GST so you instantly save 10% off the purchase price (something about your employer being able to use the tax credits). Other than that, I don't know much about other "fleet discounts".
