  • Check your contract and see if they are able to charge you for wear and tear?

    You haven't said what condition you returned it in or what you've been using it for.

    Most leasing companies will expect some wear and tear but obviously if the van is battered they will charge.

    used by a bricklayer on site which they were aware of, when van was collected was told it was in good conditon with some road stone chips which he said was normal. he also said it was a lot cleaner than a lot of caars he collects. we also phoned them about 10 wks befor collection date to collect it but heard nothing, a few days days prior to collection date we tld them that there was a fault with it which they said as it was still under warranty to contact vw which storted the problem. due this about a week delay in returning the van they charged us an extra month rental, another aprox £250
