Your Lease Options With Intelligent Vehicle Finance
Here at Intelligent Vehicle Finance, we can offer a complete range of car leasing options in Plymouth. These include:
Contract Hire
Contract Hire is one of the most popular types of car lease and could be a great choice for any business exploring car leasing in Plymouth. You can also go for Personal Contract Hire if you are leasing a vehicle as an individual.
This type of agreement allows you to drive a brand-new vehicle on a hire basis for a fixed period of time, usually two to five years. You’ll set an agreed mileage and monthly payment at the start of the lease, then return the vehicle at the end of the agreed term. Additional charges may apply if you exceed your mileage or return the vehicle with damage beyond wear and tear, but this will all be explained to you before you take out the lease.
Finance Lease
Alternatively, you may wish to explore the option of a Finance Lease with Intelligent Vehicle Finance. Much like Contract Hire, this kind of agreement involves driving a new vehicle for a fixed time in exchange for a monthly payment. However, with a Finance Lease you also have the option of owning the vehicle at the end of the agreement. You will set a balloon payment that covers this and can either pay it and keep the vehicle, or sell the vehicle to raise the funds and benefit from any equity that may have grown if the car is sold for profit.
Personal Contract Purchase
If you are an individual exploring car leasing in Plymouth and want the option of ownership at the end of the agreement, look at a Personal Contract Purchase. With this type of lease, you may an initial payment and a series of monthly payments in exchange for the use of a new vehicle over a set period. When that period comes to an end, you can either return the vehicle to the company, pay a balloon payment and take ownership of it, or refinance the final payment to spread out the cost of ownership.
Hire Purchase
Hire Purchase is similar to a Personal Contract Purchase, but you don’t have the option of returning the vehicle to the finance company at the end of the term. It’s pretty straightforward in the sense that the vehicle will automatically be yours once you have made all of the agreed repayments, however this type of lease does come with the risks associated with ownership like depreciation and maintenance.
