What are the commercial benefits of Leasing?

Leasing provides many benefits to your business such as:

• Improved cash flow with minimal upfront payment and no requirement to pay the VAT upfront.
• Fixed monthly payments with maintenance which makes it easy to budget for the cost of the vehicle.
• Optional Maintenance package gives you peace of mind included so there are no increased outgoings when your vehicle needs a service or tyres.
• Your vehicle is managed by us so tax renewed and CVRT booked (with maintenance).
• At the end of the contract you simply hand the vehicle back.
• Once the vehicle is returned in-line with our Fair Wear and Tear guide and within contracted mileage, there is no further payment required. .
