    Oh no I can't post links, if you search for contract hire there the 5th one down. Highly reccommended.
  • Dealers used to be limited by their franchise agreements to selling only within a set geographic area. That no longer applies and now all dealers can sell anywhere in the country. Nationwide delivery should mean nationwide right :rotfl: and you have just encountered a dealer who just doesn't have many finance options and has one that is only for mainland UK. That really shouldn't be a problem if you source your finance through a broker working for a financing company, and that broker will arrange that car to be delivered to you. No BMW dealership experience tho, but do you really need that? ;) I suggest you just compare different sites online - don't forget financeacar.co.uk has some specials on BMWs as well

    Try http://neva-consultants.com/ and ask for Howard.

    From personal experience, they are totally outstanding.
  • The best way to lease a new car or van is through a leasing broker.

    The main benefit of a broker is that a broker is knowledgeable of the market and will be aware of what is a good deal at the time.

    A manufacturer or car dealer will only promote products which they sell. i.e. a VW salesman wouldn't tell you that there are some great deals to be had on Mazda's this month nor would a Peugeot salesman advertise that if you want to buy a Peugeot Van that you would be better off buying the exact same van albeit with a different badge from Citroen.

    This is the same with leasing companies. Whilst one leasing company might have super deals on Audi another might be cheaper on Mercedes. This is due to several factors but the main being the discount they have negotiated with the manufacturer and their vehicles residual value. The main cost of a lease is the vehicle depreciation value. Interest rates are very similar across the board and do not make a lot of difference between leasing companies.

    An experienced broker however will be very well aware of where to get the best vehicle price and who to finance it with, and by marrying the two will always produce the best results.


    If you have any questions about leasing we are always happy to help.

  • i read that time4leasing have over 17,000 clients and i cannot say ive found any negative info on the net about them, yet. i suppose if they are associated with BVRLA leasing broker members and are a 5 star acceditated business by whitehatworks and an approved google partner, i guess they are worth a try? :money:
  • We have leased a number of cars and vans in the past and have found it to be a fairly painless process. Whether or not the price of doing so makes sense is another question - it seems to depend greatly on the miles you do and the term of the the lease you take. It seems to be the longer the lease period the cheaper it will be. Same goes for mileage - less mileage + cheaper.

    We have used these guys in the past: vanleasingquotes.com

    Their website contains mainly vans but we have rented both BMW and Renault cars from them also.

    Good luck!
