We are looking for someone (or more than one person) to write 100-word mini reviews for a new car leasing site. These reviews will be at range level i.e. reviewing the 3 Series as a whole, rather than 3 Series Saloon or a specific derivative.

Our aim is to provide a friendly, trustworthy, clear, helpful and inclusive way to find a great lease deal - and a key part of this is having our own unique content.

The reviews need to contain:

A circa 100 word summary

List of current trim levels with description

Links to recent reviews from selected publications

List of three alternative ranges

A fun fact (if there is one!)

A good all round knowledge of the UK car market and the ability to write in a clear and engaging manner, with good spelling and grammar are vital - beyond that we're completely flexible.

Initially we are looking for 50 of these, with the possibility of it becoming an ongoing assignment.

If interested, please email hello@leasefully.com with a brief introduction.

Hi there - sorry I should have been clearer in the OP! What we need are really summaries, rather than reviews. We only need around a hundred words for each, so no space for an actual review.

That's a lot of information to cram into 100 words.

No Problem. Silly question, paid per car article?

Sounds interesting. Will there be a fee, or will this be "for the exposure"?

It will be paid, per overview or alternatively an overall fee if that works best for both parties. If you are seriously interested please do email the address in the OP.

The 100 words is just for the summary - the other points are in addition as they are mostly just lists.

So you want people to write about a car that they have no real knowledge of to help people choose a new lease car ?

Just to be clear, these people will have actually seen/sat in/driven one of these cars they are writing about? Seems a bit crazy and misleading otherwise.
