Tips for renting a car

Complete the quote request form

Being specific on your vehicle derivative will expedite your rental contract quote request.

Vehicle insurance

All vehicles require comprehensive car rental insurance and customers must notify their insurance company of the specific use of the vehicle to avoid any issues in the event of a claim.

Rental Vehicle Maintenance Contract

Always refer to the manufacturer’s manual for service mileage intervals and regularly check tire and oil levels.

Maintenance Free Car Leases

Remember that the customer is responsible for maintaining and servicing the vehicle as recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.

manufacturer’s guarantee

All new vehicles come with a manufacturer’s warranty. Keep in mind that a manufacturer’s warranty does not mean free service with a car lease.

Roadside assistance and free service

Check the manufacturer’s website before selecting your options, as we don’t want you to pay for something that they can include for free with the vehicle.

Save money on mileage

Save money by reviewing your mileage after 11 months and if you miscalculated your initial estimated mileage, your lease may allow you to reduce or increase contract mileage by rescheduling the agreement, raising or lowering the finance rent, eliminating any potential excess mileage penalties .

Mileage

As long as you don’t exceed the total mileage of the lease, it doesn’t matter if you get more miles in year one and fewer miles in year two.

Vehicle test drive

Always try to test drive a vehicle before entering into a rental agreement to ensure it meets your requirements and expectations.

directors

Before entering into a car lease, check its tax implications first, as personal leasing may be more cost-effective.

Sole traders and partners

Sole traders and partners benefit from the fact that they are currently not affected by the 2002 CO2 tax regulations. (Only their employees are affected).

Company car users

Note that when you add more optional extras to a car, this can increase the P11D value, which could increase the in-kind benefit from the CO2 tax you pay. (This does not affect Personal Contracts)

High mileage users

The smallest change in mileage can drastically affect the monthly contract rental cost for you or your business and checking manufacturer service intervals could help you decide to perhaps choose 28,000 per year instead of 30,000 and cut costs.

questions and answers

If you’re ever unsure about something, feel free to ask the question, especially with the documentation.

choice of fuel

Calculate your estimated mileage and compare fuel costs to mpg for the most economical option.

Lease Extension

It is possible to extend your lease while you wait for the delivery of your next vehicle.

accidents

In the event of an accident, always contact your insurance company immediately and then your leasing provider.

Special offers

Please note that special offers are usually available on a limited number of vehicles during a restricted period of time. To take advantage of these offers, it is essential to make a quick inquiry, as they can change from one day to the next.
