Thank you to our young-driver and new leasing customer from Reading for sending through photographs of their brand-new hot hatch – the VW Polo GTi. While the sportier, and quicker, cars have been on the decline due to insurance costs, for those who are willing to push their budgets there are some credible options to […]
In Review; VW Polo 1.0 EVO 80 Beats 5 door (Petrol/ Manual)
What is the perfect car for a young or first time driver? Can you get a new car as a new driver? In this case, our younger personal leasing customer from Dunstable certainly knew which car they wanted – the VW Polo! The small car category is littered with some great options and, as time […]
In Review; Mini Convertible 1.5 Cooper Sport II Comfort/Nav Pack (Petrol/Manual)
New to the world of contract hire and leasing? You may have a few questions about the process before, during and after the arrangement. As leasing has grown, so has the industry which supports its functions, in particular that for managing and repairing the vehicles. Quite strangely, as the car is not owned by the […]
In Review; Fiat 500 1.2 S 3dr (Petrol/ Manual)
Looking for the cheapest car leasing deal? This is one of the most searched for contract hire queries on Google, in particular customers looking to spend in and around £150 per month on a new car. Almost every manufacturer has a “small” car option, which is aimed more on providing value rather than comfort and […]
In Review; Renault Clio 0.9 TCE 90 Iconic 5dr (Manual/Petrol)
Thank you to our car rental partners, Enterprise (at Leigh Greater Manchester), for allowing us to photograph one of their newest additions to the fleet – the Renault Clio hatchback. As we have been discussing recently, it is very important to make clear distinctions between the different finance products which are available in the UK […]
In Review; Seat Arona 1.6 TDI 115 SE Technology Lux [ez] (Diesel/ Manual)
A big thank you to our personal car leasing customer, from Cheltenham, for sending through pictures of their new micro-SUV – the Seat Arona. As the smaller SUV category is a competitive class of vehicles, would you select this as your next leasing option? Or would the Audi Q2, VW T-Roc, Peugeot 2008 or Vauxhall […]
In Review; Ford Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost Titanium 5dr (Manual/ Petrol)
Another addition to our car rental partners’ fleet, Enterprise (at Leigh Greater Manchester), which we had the chance to review – the Ford Fiesta. As the UK’s best-selling car (which it has been year on year), the new Fiesta is an ever-popular car. Appealing to both younger and older drivers alike, Ford do seem to […]
In Review; Renault Clio 0.9 TCE 90 Dynamique Nav 5dr (Petrol/Manual)
Thank you to our Leeds-based personal leasing customer for sending this very “arty” picture of their brand-new car – the ever popular Renault Clio. A great small (and cheaper) lease option, the Clio is a great alternative to those looking at the Ford Fiesta (the UK’s best-selling vehicle), the Seat Ibiza and the Peugeot 208. […]
In Review; Audi A1 1.0 TFSi S-Line inc. Navigation 3dr S-Tronic (Auto) Petrol
Thank you to our personal car lease customer from Denton (Manchester) for visiting the CarLease UK team to collect their new car – the Audi A1. As a young-driver, they were quite specific as to which car they wanted (some of which was due to insurance) and it therefore did take some careful consideration from […]
Young, No Credit & Want a Lease Car?
Another interesting question, which does get raised regularly here @CarLease UK, is the question of young drivers and car leasing. Due to changes with credit and insurance, leasing a vehicle as a young person can have its challenges. Firstly, to lease a vehicle you must be aged 18 or over because this is a credit […]
In Review; Renault Clio 0.9 TCE 90 Iconic 5dr (Petrol) (Manual)
Thank you to our Stourport on Severn (Worcestershire) based personal leasing customer for sending through pictures of their brand-new “68 plate” car – the Renault Clio. Having recently received a small facelift and specification upgrade, the Clio has become one of the most popular small (and cheap) car leasing deals. With massive competition from the […]
In Review; VW Polo 1.0 TSI SE 95 5dr (Manual)
Thank you to our existing business leasing customer, from Manchester, for visiting the CarLease UK team to collect their new car – the VW Polo. As an existing customer, they had to go through the return and “collection” process which can often cause some trepidation for customers looking at contract hire. There is a little […]
