Our commitment is to be different.

Not all contract hire companies are the same. If you see a vehicle advertised on this site it is because we guarantee that it is available at the price advertised. We promise to quote you delivery dates that are achievable and will never attempt to “up-sell” you to a different model or a higher rate. There are no hidden costs or charges in any quote we give you and - unless you ask us to quote for a different term - we always quote 3 payments in advance followed by either 23 or 35 monthly payments so as not to distort the monthly payment figures on which you can make a fair comparison.

Contract Hire

Contract hire is the most popular option for limited companies, partnerships or sole traders. The business and commercial benefits of contract car hire are:

  • Monthly premiums remain unchanged throughout the term of the contract.
  • Drop in residual values is not borne by the hirer.
  • Predictable and fully budgeted motoring costs.
  • Time consuming aspects of fleet management such as disposing of vehicles is avoided.

For others who want car leasing deals, but do not fall into the categories above, there are alternative forms of funding a new vehicle.

Car Leasing

Car leasing agreements can be for a term of 1 -4 years (more typically cheap car leasing deals are offered over a 2-3 year term). Standard car leasing UK practice is to request an initial payment equivalent to 3 monthly instalments followed by 35 standard monthly payments. Car leasing companies usually base these calculations on an assumed mileage of 10,000 miles per annum, but a quote for a different mileage can be requested.
