Hi folks

I need to lease a ELWB 17-seater Minibus for between 2 & 5 years. It needs to be fully maintained, tacho fitted, with 3 monthly safety checks. Ideally the only costs I want to pay for (apart from the lease) are petrol.

Does anybody have any minibuses on lease or alternatively recommend any companies that could provide this type of vehicle ?

Thanks in advance

There are a lot of lease companies around, you just choose the one that best meet syour needs.
If you going for lease are you a LTD company, if not maybe go for a PCP (personal contract plan) as it may be better for you financialy, and also if you have no trading history it may be difficult to obtain credit.

What mileage are you looking at? Do you require a PSV and/or a private hire licence and insurance etc?

Speak to Hampsons - 01775 714400 - ask for Naomi, shes in tomorrow - she will get you a sales contact to sort out a good deal. That branch is in Spalding, Lincs, but they have other branches they use, and do contract hire long term.
