Lease Direct purchases large numbers of new and used cars each year, and enjoys substantial discounts through its many trade connections. By leasing with them you will benefit from Lease Direct's purchasing power.
To get the best possible deal it may be necessary to purchase the vehicle from another dealer who offers the most competitive price for the vehicle.
Lease Direct can purchase the vehicle(s) from you for an agreed value and lease the vehicle back to your business under a Lease Direct lease provided the vehicle is of a good standard and capable of meeting your needs for the duration of the lease.
Our standard lease terms range from 6 months up to a maximum of 45 months on passenger vehicles, and 12 months to 60 months on light commercial vehicles. Whilst our standard maximum vehicle usage within the above lease terms is 150,000 kilometres, Lease Direct would consider approval of vehicle usage above the standard maximum in special circumstances.
The interest rate is only one factor of a Lease Direct lease. The quoted monthly rental covers the long term hire of a motor vehicle, which includes many additional features such as maintenance, registration renewal etc..
Lease Direct is aware that from time to time, you may be faced with having vehicles in your fleet that become surplus to your requirements, and we do cater to those situations. The adjustment required is determined by the proportion of outstanding rentals and the vehicle being returned to Lease Direct in acceptable condition.
Yes, all drivers, as well as their family and friends, have an opportunity to purchase the vehicle at lease end at very competitive pricing. Simply call Lease Direct for assistance.
Since Lease Direct is the owner of the vehicle, it must be returned upon the completion of the lease term in an acceptable condition. This means that the vehicle must be in good condition inside and out, and in sound mechanical order throughout with regard to distance travelled and age of the vehicle. Accepting that some wear and tear will occur, a copy of the Lease Direct Fair Wear & Tear guide can be requested from Lease Direct. A guide is that normal stone chips and small dents under 30 mm diameter are accepted as are scratches less than 100 mm.
Possibly, depending on the original lease term you have selected. Lease Direct is pleased to offer a Lease extension facility. When the vehicle is nearing its lease end, simply call Lease Direct with your request, and they will provide a quote based on the term of the extension available and the additional vehicle usage.
Lease Direct's excess kilometre charges are based on a fixed rate per kilometre and the calculation depends upon the actual lease agreement and type of vehicle. The actual excess kilometre fixed rate for each vehicle is stipulated on the True Operating Lease.
Lease Direct can offer four solutions to this situation:
One solution is that you may have other vehicles that are doing low usage and so swapping high usage vehicles with low usage vehicles can correct the situation.
A second solution is for the vehicle to be returned to Lease Direct once the contracted kilometres have been completed and pay the rental adjustment applicable due to the higher than contracted usage over the shorter term. This is what the lease would have cost had the shorter term and higher usage been used to calculate the lease in the first place.
A third solution is if the excess kilometres are under 10,000 kilometres, then the vehicle can be run to the end of the term of the lease, and the excess kilometres can be invoiced to you at the end of the lease.
A fourth solution, where the excess kilometres are going to be over 10,000 kilometres is for a lease modification to be agreed between the parties and an extra monthly charge be paid by the lessee to cover the additional kilometres of usage by the lessee.
There are no set up or establishment fees. All costs except fuel, insurance and any applicable Road User Charges are included in the monthly rental.
There are no hidden costs. Provided the vehicle is returned to Lease Direct at the end of the nominated lease term within the contracted mileage and in good condition (within the guidelines of the Fair Wear & tear Guide).
If any fines are incurred by the vehicle and received by Lease Direct, they will be forwarded on to the Client. It remains the responsibility of the client to ensure any outstanding motor vehicle infringements are paid promptly.
