Take my lease

Anyone used this website?

Wife's seeked new employment which is right across the road from our house, meaning going down to one car is a go.

She's got a very cheap lease deal on a Seat Ateca £147/month which has around 11 months to go.

Its not a massive issue if it just sits on the drive for 11 months but if it can be moved on it would be a bonus.

Anyone any experience?

Lease is through vwfs.

The cars just been serviced and is within miles etc, tyres all good and no damage bar a small scratch which is borderline on the fair wear and tear guidelines.

Looked at termination and the guideline is roughly 50% of remaining payments due to the finance company which could also be an option but I'd rather someone took it over if possible.

iirc only ltd companies can take on a lease from VWFS? Otherwise your Ateca would be of interest to me.

There is incorrect guidance in there in relation to the OP's case. The article says you can only transfer a lease by keeping it personal if it's personal to start with. This is the opposite to what VWFS' constraint is. You have to be a Ltd Cy to take over a VWFS personal lease.

I looked at getting out of my golf R and the only way to do it easily is to transfer it to someone with a LTD company so i've still got it.

I think if anyone could take over a lease people would be all over short term leases and cheap deals that people want out of.

I tried to move my vwfs cupra to a ltd company and it was still rejected due to their trading history, ended up early terminating in March this year, ironically I had a letter today asking if I want to buy it , lease was up next month, I've seen it be sold by a seat dealer so computers must be way behind updating things
