Payment options - whats right for you?

Contract Hire
Contract hire is used by approximately 45% of UK businesses, including small, medium and large companies. Instead of purchasing a vehicle outright, the vehicles are "borrowed" for a fixed monthly outlay, plus initial deposit. The benefits to you? Low initial outlay, no depreciation or disposal risks, and the rentals can be offset against tax. Call for full details.

Lease Purchase
Lease purchase is where you pay a low deposit up front with a lump sum that is deferred until the end of the contract, often referred to as a balloon payment. This is a popular option with companies that dont want to lay down a lot of cash up front e.g. those with high start up costs, unpredictable cash flow etc. Vehicles funded this way will be treated as assets and appear on balance sheets.

Finance Lease
Under UK accounting rules, a finance lease is treated as an outright purchase: the leasing company, in return for a monthly rental, provides a vehicle. However, unlike a contract hire scheme, the leasing company takes no responsibility for the vehicle in terms of maintenance or residual value risk - the latter remaining the responsibility of the lessee. The lessee may pay back the entire capital cost of the vehicle, plus charges, over an agreed period of time, or they may agree a "balloon payment" to reduce the monthly rentals - but never takes ownership, despite the fact he takes the residual value risk. This option is particularly suitable for companies with wide variations in operating requirements; vehicles appear on balance sheet as assets, and the predictable cash flow makes budgeting easier .

Contract Lease
This provides you with a purchase option that has full service cover built into the agreement. The contract is mileage based - so the less you drive the less you will have to pay. Your vehicle can be treated as a business asset, which means that interest charges and any maintenance costs can be offset against taxable profits, reducing costs even more. At the end of the agreement you can make a final payment or purchase the vehicle, part-exchange it for a new vehicle or simply just return your Peugeot to us.

Contract Maintenance
Whatever type of funding your fleet uses, Peugeot Contract Maintenance is the ideal way to take the risk out of vehicle servicing and maintenance. It provides all the benefits of the special maintenance package that comes with a Peugeot Contract Hire agreement, so for a modest monthly payment, your cars and vans are maintained and serviced by us ensuring the smooth running of your fleet at all times.

The Peugeot Contract Maintenance package can provide:

Fixed budget motoring
