A big thank you to our local customer from Astley (Greater Manchester) for visiting the team at CarLease UK to collect their new BMW 4 Series!
The personal leasing customer had unfortunately not planned the return and replacement of the car as seamless as they would have wanted. Their existing car, which was not organised with us, had to be retuned on the contract end date and the car shown here, was only available circa 4 weeks later than this date.
It is important to note that not every finance company in the contract hire market will offer an “informal extension”, which essentially means that a customer can keep a vehicle beyond a contract end date.
Not every finance company is the same, so you should ask the relevant credit broker when they offer a solution to you as to the specific terms and conditions/practices of that finance company. If an informal extension is available then, for an additional cost, the customer can remain in their existing vehicle for a pre-determined amount of time but, at the very least, until the new car is available.
In terms of the car shown here, the BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe 430i M Sport Petrol 5 door Auto (Professional Media), this is based on the following configuration:
· Alpine white Solid Paint
· Brushed aluminium trim with black high gloss finish
· Dakota leather – Black
· 18″ Double spoke alloy wheels – style 400M
As standard the car includes leather upholstery, cruise control, professional media, 18” alloys, electrically adjustable seats, LED headlights, Bluetooth, heated insulating glass, rain sensing wipers, brake assist, dynamic traction control, dynamic brake control, hill start assist, BMW remote services, start/stop button, automatic tailgate opening, real time traffic information, iDrive controller with 8.5” touch screen, body coloured exterior, LED daytime running lights, climate control, extended lights package, crash sensor, electronic differential lock, steering wheel mounted gearshift paddles, Bluetooth, wifi hot spot, front/rear parking sensors. In terms of additional factory options, consider adding to your BMW 4 Series – sun protection glass, M Sport Plus Pack or the active security pack.
On the technical-side the car shown here has a P11d of £40,835.00 and CO2 at 136g/km. The 1998CC 8 speed auto engine delivers 48.7 combined MPG, 0-62 times of 5.9 seconds and has 252ps. Service intervals are set at every 24 months or 18,000 miles, whichever lands sooner. Do consider the funder-maintained arrangement to include the cost of all servicing, tyres and maintenance for the duration.
So would the BMW 4 series be your preferred leasing option? Or would you head over to Audi for the A5 or Mercedes for a CLA Class?
