Van Leasing For Your Business
If you are looking to start up or expand your business and are in need of some vans, think about van leasing. There are many advantages to van leasing over buying that you should think about before making a decision. Leasing could potentially be a brilliant option for your business by saving you a fortune whilst displaying a professional image.
First and foremost, any successful business will have a strategy to ensure the business is spending wisely and do not throw away any money. Van leasing fits in perfectly with a money saving and profit maximising strategy as you can budget for the fixed low monthly payments. You will also save money in the long run as you don’t have to worry about the depreciation of the vehicle once you are done with it. All you have to do is choose your required contract term and return the vehicle in the same condition once your contract has ended.
Another great advantage to van leasing is the fuss-free element of it which sorts out many different things on your behalf. This included the road tax and the manufacturer warranty which comes with the leasing package. There is also the option of including maintenance in the package so you don’t have to worry if you face any technical problems – you simply leave it to your leasing company to deal with.
Lastly, van leasing is undoubtedly advantageous due to the image it helps to create for your business as you will be driving around in a new, shiny and professional van. You can choose from all makes and manufacturers to ensure the vehicle meets your requirements technically and physically looks the part too. As you will be on a temporary contract, you can upgrade your vehicle ever few years for anything else that catches your eye.
Before you decide whether to buy or lease a van, ensure you speak to your finance team, work out your budget and talk to a leasing company to see what they can offer you and whether it’s beneficial for your business to take them up on their offer! Then the next step for your business may be redecorating, so take another wise business decision and find stunning used office furniture – no one will be able to tell the difference!
Land Rover wishes it’s employees a Merry Christmas
We all know that Christmas is a time to relax with families, exchange gifts and see the smile on other people’s face when you give them your present. Well this Christmas, Land Rover called back hundreds of workers at thier Solihill factory from their Christmas holiday’s so they can keep up with demand, a great way to up worker moral!
Workers originally had a two-week break but that was cut short by a day as they had to put in a special Christmas shift at the Solihill Factory in Birmingham.
Demand for Land Rover’s and Range Rover’s have rocketted with models like the Range Rover Sport, Land Rover Discovery, Range Rover Evoque and Land Rover Defender doing particularly well.
Land Rover spokesman Nick O’Donnell has tried to explain the decision, “The reason for opening up for one day is to cope with high demand. It is to ensure we make good progress on getting the cars finished and ready.
“It has been a very good sales performance this year for Land Rover. Everyone has been talking about the Evoque at Halewood and the awards it has won and the sales achieved but also, across the board at Solihull, there has been a very strong performance.
“We have seen strong growth in emerging markets such as China, Russia, India etc. In the year to the end of November, we have seen Range Rover up by 27.4 per cent, Range Rover Sport by 18.9 per cent, Discovery by 16.5 per cent and the Defender by 10.1 per cent.”
One reason why the sales have gone up is the rapid rise in Land Rover leasing and Range Rover Sport Leasing. Car leasing has become ever popular because it is not one big payment, it is a set monthly amount which attracts more people to buy it so they don’t have to break the bank or get out a loan to buy the car.
So lease a Land Rover soon as there is not many left as the demand for them is extremely high!
Is Your Faithful Van Starting To Become Unreliable?
So your lovely old faithful van is starting to become unreliable and starting to show its age but you haven’t got the money to go out and buy a new one.
Well have you ever wondered if commercial vehicle leasing is right for you, as there are benefits to both you and your business?
Two advantages of commercial vehicle leasing are that you can reclaim the VAT and the rental price can be offset for business use each month.
When you sign up to the term of your contract you must remember to try and continue for the whole duration as if you terminate the contract early you will almost certainly incur a penalty charge. Penalties also apply if you go over your contract mileage so make sure you check your mileage allowance too.
The other benefit (which is more for you), is that you have the chance of driving a much nicer van by leasing one as if you had to buy it, it would probably not of been in your budget.
So, if you are looking to finance a vehicle but want a minimal initial outlay, then leasing a van could be the perfect solution for your next choice of van.
Have You Thought About Car Leasing?
So you have decided that you are going to treat yourself to a new car but now you have to decide whether to buy one or do you, like many others, choose to lease one for the first time?
It seems nowadays that cars depreciate more in value so I guess one advantage of leasing is you don’t have to worry how much your car is worth when looking at replacing it.
With leasing, there is normally a small deposit to pay which is usually around 3 month’s payment in advance and if you weigh up buying a car it’s a much smaller sum of money to part with. The contracts are normally fixed for around 2-3 years giving you the option to renew your contract at the end of the term.
If you run your own business then it’s a popular choice for many. For example you could have a BMW 3 series contract hire which then allows you to reclaim 100% of the VAT on servicing and 50% of the VAT on the financial rental cost.
BMW leasing is extremely popular with many as it allows you to have the pleasure of driving a car that you may not have had the pleasure of driving had you had to go out and buy one!
