The most asked FAQ's

The FAQ's we're asked the most - along with the comprehensive answers we provide !

Are the lease vehicles brand new ? 

Most of the vehicles we supply are brand new and registered for the first time just before delivery. Occasionally, however, we offer pre-registered vehicles to unlock better deals without compromising quality- here's what that means: 

• Delivery mileage only - usually under 100 miles before delivery 
• Full manufacturer warranty  - dated to start from the registration date 
• MOT - due 3 years from the date of registration 

For full peace of mind we can add a maintenance package to cover costs associated with servicing, repairs, MOT's and tyres. 

If the vehicle we are quoting is pre-registered we will advie you from the outset when the vehicle was registered and what registration plate will appear on the vehicle on delivery 

Can I choose the specification of my vehicle ? 

Yes - with a factory order you can personalise almost every detail of your vehicle, while stock or pipeline cars come as is - but usually in a range of popular colours and with the most popular factory options added if applicable. See summary below 

• Factory orders - choose your paint colour or finish [ solid, two tone, pearlescent, metallic etc ] , wheels, interior trim and extras like tech packs or safety / assistance packs etc 
• Stock / pre-registered or pipeline cars - these will have fixed specification but usually with a choice of colours - they will usually often preferential pricing and quicker delivery over factory ordered cars 

If you're not too sure which route to take we can provide quotations for both to enable you to consider the trade-off or balance between price/ speed and personalisation to meet your personal requirements. 

How soon can I get my car ? 

It depends on whether you are choosing a "stock vehicle" or factory order 

• Stock vehicles - although described as "stock" they could be at a central manufacturer distribution centre or dealer preparation centre - "stock" vehicles are not normally sat at a dealer. Typically stock vehicles can be delivered within 2-4 weeks but please take into account the 14 day cooling off period for personal contract hire - the 14 days begin upon receipt of your signed documentation by the finance / lease company.
• Pipeline or Factory Orders - this will vary by brand, model and in some cases specific factory options but we are typically experiencing lead times of c8-16 weeks. 
• Used EV's - these vehicles are usually held in the leasing company's distribution centre and are prepared prior to being offered for lease ... typically the leasing company requests that these vehicles are delivered within 14 days of order - please bear this in mind when enquiring on our used lease cars. 

Whatever your requirements we will provide a realistic timescale for delivery at the time of quoting - we never over estimated how quickly vehicles may arrive. 

Can I lease if I'm self-employed ?

Absolutely - we support sole traders, freelances and micro businesses/ partnerships and go through the underwriting process with the leasing company as follows: 

• Complete the finance application with affordability and credit check 
• Provide proof of ID like a photo driving licence and recent household bill 
• Provide recent bank statements and latest accounts  

Not forgetting you can access the same special offers and great deals as any other customer - leasing can be a great option for sole-traders and tradesmen.
