Things to Consider Before You Sign Up

• Leasing isn’t necessarily suitable for every individual or business customer but, as long as you look after the vehicle and do not greatly exceed the estimated mileage for the duration of your contract, it can be a cost effective way of securing the vehicle you want
• Make sure that you choose a reputable (preferably locally based) leasing company or broker
• Check your agreement and be sure that you understand and are happy with the terms – pay particular attention to any penalty clauses such as excess mileage charges or damage (other than wear and tear).
