Lease Purchase

Lease Purchase is a leasing option available to businesses.  It's useful if you want to own a vehicle at the end of the lease.

Benefits of Lease Purchase

You get to keep the vehicle at the end of the lease (but monthly payments tend to be higher than Contract Hire - it's similar to HP). 

The main points

  • The vehicle will be registered in your company name and will appear on the balance sheet
  • Monthly payments are not subject to VAT
  • Tax writing down allowances can be claimed
  • There is no mileage restriction
  • There is no option to include a maintenance package
  • You will receive road tax for the first year

What happens at the end of the lease?

You pay for the full value of the vehicle via monthly rentals with a balloon payment at the end of the contract.

At the end of the contract, you own the vehicle - there is no option to hand it back.
