I lease all my cars for various reasons. Worth doing if it fits with your personal requirements. It depends what type of vehicles you're looking at as to whom i'd recommend to you.

Or (and just to balance things up a bit), you could try:


www.ambervehiclesolutions.co.uk <- got my L200 from them, great deal, great service.
www.roylesfinanceandleasing.co.uk <- I set that company up with Andy the MD of Royles (franchised Jaguar dealer), if anybody can get you a deal, Andy will.
www.vehicleoptions.biz <- Big company, lots of good deals and great customer support infrastructure.

I used a Freedom contract hire and leasing (www.freedomcontracts.com) when I leased a Renault megane and they were excellent. Chris is very good there.

If you look at www.contracthireandleasing.com you'll find everything on there.

For Personal contracts just add the vat (17.5%) onto the business rate quoted. When examining the excess mileage (ie you hire on a 10,000 miles a year but do 12,000) check what the pence per mile figure is (7-14p usually - mine was 7.5p) and that it also includes vat too.

I went for a non-maintenance contract but depending on how many miles, peace of mind, least hassle fully maintenanced might be the way to go. You might also want to check that if you go non-maintained whether or not you have to service the car at a main dealer or not to fulfill the contract terms. On mine you didn't and I saved a shed load on servicing by going to a reputable renault specialist rather than a renault main dealer.

Hope this helps.

My wife is leasing a car through Ling and I know another couple of satisfied customers too. Her website is good because it shows you monthly costs without having to register all your details and then wait for a phonecall or email.
