Leasing is a convenient way to drive a car without owning it. You pay a monthly rental fee to use the car for a set period, usually between 1 to 4 years. When the lease ends, you just return the car. It's like having a long-term rental, allowing you to enjoy a new car every few years without the hassle of ownership.

  • FAQs

    How do the payments for leasing work?

    After you've chosen your car, you'll need to decide on three things: your initial rental payment, how many miles you plan to drive each year, and the length of your lease. These factors will determine your monthly payments.

    You also have the option to include a servicing and maintenance package in your monthly payments to keep your car in great condition.

    At the end of your lease, once all payments are made, just return the car. Fair wear and tear and any excess mileage charges may apply.

    What are the benefits of leasing?

    Leasing offers many benefits that make it a great choice for many:

    • Simple monthly payments: Pay a monthly rental for your car, change it regularly, and avoid depreciation risks.

    • No ownership worries: Since you don't own the car, you just hand it back at the end of the lease.

    • No extra final payments: There are no additional final payments at the end of the agreement, except for excess mileage and fair wear and tear.

    • Regular upgrades: Easily upgrade to the latest model by simply returning your car at the end of each lease.

    • Easy budgeting: You can include a service, maintenance, and tires plan in your monthly payments.

    Leasing provides cost-effectiveness, flexibility, convenience, and access to a wide range of cars, making it an appealing option for many drivers.

    Would leasing suit me?

    Leasing is a simple and easy way to get into a new car. It might be the perfect choice for you if:

    • You don't do alot of miles 

    • You prefer not to own the car

    • You would like to upgrade to a new car regularly

    • You take good care of your car

    What are the disadvantages of leasing?

    While leasing has many benefits, there are some limitations to consider:

    • Ownership: The car remains property of Volkswagen Financial Services, so keeping up with your monthly payments is key. If you're having trouble, reach out to us, as falling behind could put the car at risk. 

    • Early termination: Leasing agreements aren't really meant to be ended early. But if your situation changes and you need out, just ask us for a quote to cover the remaining costs. 

    • Excess mileage charges: Going over your agreed mileage can lead to extra charges. If you think you might exceed your limit, give us a shout to discuss options. 

    • Vehicle condition: Taking good care of your car matters. You could face charges for damage beyond what's considered normal wear and tear. Any fixes need to meet Volkswagen's standards. 

    Thinking about the benefits and these points will help you figure out if leasing fits your needs and preferences. We're here to help along the way!

    What happens at the end of leasing a car?

    When your agreement wraps up, you won't be the owner of the car since you're basically renting it. You'll need to cover any extra miles you've driven or any minor wear and tear, and then return the car to Volkswagen Financial Services.

    Can I cancel early?

    If you wish to hand the car back before the end of the contract term, you will be subject to an early termination fee. This is calculated based on the monthly rentals and the length of the time remaining on the contract. To begin the process contact customerservices@vwfs.co.uk.
