Contract Hire

Contract Hire is exactly the same as hiring a car for the weekend but over a longer term. The customer hires the vehicle for a fixed period of time, with a given mileage limit & pays a fixed rental. At the end of the hire period, the vehicle is returned to the Contract Hire Company. Contract Hire attracts VAT & is usually only of benefit to VAT registered individuals & businesses.

This may also mean that the more you borrow the more we receive. The payment we receive may vary between finance providers and product types. We will tell you the payment we will receive from the finance provider before you enter into your agreement with the lender. The payment we receive does not impact the finance rate you are offered by the lender.
