Car Leasing Companies and Contract Hire Companies in the UK

Car Leasing Brokers

In 2008 there are more than a thousand car finance and contract hire and leasing brokers, offering a variety of services from a simple car leasing deal to a full fleet management solution for a corporate client.

A contract hire and leasing broker is an introducer of business to larger financial organisation that wish to target a market sector such as SME businesses (small to medium sized enterprises) for which they have no direct sales force to service. The SME business sector generally cover companies that may run a single vehicle or up to a fleet of 250 vehicles,  and at times some car leasing organisations suggest that the professional car leasing broker network should serve companies up to 500 - 750 vehicles on fleet. The broker is therefore the represenative.

Simply, a contract and leasing broker will present to you a vehicle leasing contract from one their preferred suppliers, as each supplier has their own unique benefits and these are match against the requirements of each client’s. However, the leasing broker has a significant control over the construction of the vehicle contract, although you will enter into a contractual agreement with the car leasing brokers chosen funder directly.

The broker may offer you a service, maintenance and repair contract with your leasing agreement, either from the same funder or from an alternative third party provider or their own advanced product. This is generally offered based on a lower monthly cost or with additional benefits to the client for the same or equivalent price.

You will find many advantages in doing business with a car leasing broker, least of all they have a pool of providers to choose from, a focus on making your contract hire or car leasing offer the most cost effective solution for your individual needs. This may not stop you from shopping around for what you may consider to be the best deal, and later find out that it not to your precise requirements - Let the broker do the work for you, but be fair and open, tell your car leasing broker what you want, and what you expect they will then do the shopping for you.

If your business is new or not financially strong, your car leasing broker will find you a company willing to lease you a vehicle or will negotiate with a provider to accept your case. A local contract hire and leasing broker may be best, as they get to know you and your business they should be in a position tailor their service to suit your requirements easier than a car dealer that only offers generally one make of vehicle and do not have a specialist leasing experience.
