Maintenance
The prices displayed on our website do not include a provision for maintenance. For you, or your business, this means that if you proceed with a non-maintained contract (which we refer to as a “driver-maintained” contract) all vehicle maintenance will be covered by you (and at your cost). However, a maintenance package is an additional option which can be added to your contract for an additional cost (subject to the finance/leasing company who you proceed with). We refer to this as a “funder-maintained” agreement.
As CarLease UK work with a limited number of finance providers, the exact contents of the maintenance package can vary from company to company. Additionally, as vehicle maintenance will vary from vehicle manufacturer to manufacturer, it is advisable to speak with one of our account managers to discuss your exact requirements.
