Located in Reading in the South of England, Reading has a growing car and van lease market. Increasing numbers of people are turning to car leasing as a more viable way of driving modern vehicles without paying through the nose for the privilege. Whether you're a personal client seeking a private lease or a business client looking for a company lease or fleet management, our friendly team has you covered.

Car leasing as a whole throughout the UK has exploded in recent years, with an estimated 1.6 million UK vehicles now being a personal lease – which doesn’t even account for all the business lease vehicles currently out there. There’s good reason that vehicle leasing has become so much more popular in recent years. Here are some of the main benefits to leasing a car in the UK:

  • Low payments per month – compared with personal contract purchase, outright purchase, finance lease and even hire purchase, car leasing is the cheapest on average per month. This is partly because you’re not going to end up owning the vehicle so you don’t need to pay the full price of the vehicle. It allows you to drive what would otherwise be a more expensive vehicle on the same budget.
  • Drive the newest vehicles – one aspect that draws a lot of people to vehicle leasing is the ability to obtain the newest cars on the market, without needing to pay massive amounts up front or per month. Driving the latest and greatest cars is a luxury a lot of people can’t afford without a lease agreement. 
  • Refresh your vehicle every few years – typically when you purchase a new vehicle, you’ll have this vehicle for a decade on average, if not longer. With car leasing, contract terms are very flexible, with a lot of options for just 2 year contracts. This means that every 2 years you can renew your contract on a new vehicle to be driving the latest car every 2 years. 
  • Avoid extra long term vehicle costs – aside from the luxury of driving the latest vehicles, having new vehicles more regularly actually saves you a lot of money in the long run. Newer vehicles rarely need maintenance work or have issues that require large payments to resolve. There are even leasing contracts available that include the maintenance anyway but even taking out a basic contract isn’t likely to rack up these fees anyway. 

Car leasing is a simple process – unlike when buying a car outright, car leasing can be much less of a headache. Different circumstances may change the process slightly but typically car leasing can be broken down in to the following simple steps:

  • Choose your vehicle
  • Obtain a quote 
  • Apply for finance (pending a successful credit check)
  • Sign the legal paperwork
  • Arrange delivery of your new vehicle
  • No need to worry about vehicle depreciation – since leases are normally over a shorter term than one would normally outright own a vehicle for, you don’t need to worry about the vehicle value depreciating over time. You’ll be giving the vehicle back at the end of your contract anyway. 

Those are just some of the benefits of a personal car lease in Reading. For more information, advice or to make an enquiry don’t hesitate to get in touch with Express Vehicle Contracts today.
