Company Car leasing
I have been advised that it would benefit my small business if I was to lease a 'green' company car. It would probably cost around £14,000 and I would want to take the lease over 3 years.
I have a limited company with just myself and wife as shareholders. It has been running for nearly 20years and has no debts or overdraft ( with the RBS ). My gross turnover is around £70k per year.
Personally however we are trying to clear credit card debts due to a failed business venture over 5 years ago where I was asked to help someone else run their business ( NOT my own ) and unfortunately it turned out he was a fake..
Anyway, Does anyone have any recommendations on leasing companies and the best way to find out how we fair as I dont want to see loads of potential failed applications on our credit record..
I wasnt sure whether car leasing takes a different approach as they effectively own the car
Many thanks

They don't effectively own the car, they actually own the car!
But you might want to try the 'mental oriental' Lingscars - if nothing else, she knows a thing or two about publicity ;-) But she has also won awards and does do a lot of business!0 -

I've used Sprint car leasing on two occasions & never had any problems.Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud.0
