This is a low-cost rental on a Personal Contract Hire from Ling on a New Mini Countryman.
Are you a business customer? CLICK HERE
This is Personal Contract Hire...
...what does this mean?
You don't own the
car, you just rent it for
4 years then you just hand back. You can apply to buy it at the end, but this is at the discretion of the finance company.
Usually you just rent it and then give it back - and you are free to get another car, or walk away.
Your choice. Renting this
car is like renting a daily rental
car for a longer contract. Personal Contract Hire is a beautiful easy product, see? I get my own cars using this method.

I reply quickly!
Initial rental is usually paid before delivery, by cheque,
card or debit payment. Initial rental is part of cost, and is not a deposit and is not refunded at end of term,
just to be clear.
These prices are LIVE! Occasionally, suppliers may forget to inform me of price changes, adjustments
have to be made. I take pride in having the most accurate prices on the web.

QUESTIONS ABOUT
THIS CONTRACT
?
This is a deal. My offer on this
Mini Countryman is on a
6 +
47 profile. You know what this means?
I explain: This means that you pay
6 payments of £
366.
43 (
including VAT) as initial payment, then you pay
47 payments of £
366.
43 (
including VAT) monthly by direct debit. These payments are based on you driving an annual mileage of 10,000 miles per annum.
Anyone you want can drive this Mini Countryman; you just need to insure it
and
put fuel in the tank.
Easy! When your rental finishes, you just walk away...
or swap your
car for a brand-new one of the same or a different type on a new contract.
It's fun to change into a brand new car! It saves washing the old one, hehe.
Mileage?
EXCEEDING
THE MILEAGE
|
|
If you exceed the total mileage then at the end of the rental you pay an additional "excess mileage" charge for these extra miles.
It's usually between 4p and 10p per mile.
|
Servicing
SERVICING THIS
MINI COUNTRYMAN
|
This car deal does not include servicing. You have to get the
car serviced at the manufacturer scheduled intervals and mileage.
Most contracts allow this to be done by a non-franchised garage, but some finance companies (mainly VW, Audi, Skoda, Seat and BMWs and some Mercedes contracts) insist on using
the franchised dealer. It is hard to know exactly until we all see the finance agreements.
Whatever, if you use the car normally, the servicing requirements will be minimal. Only heavy users will ever need to replace brake pads, for example.
|
Driving Licence
|
Because there is no other de-facto ID card in the UK, the finance company always want to see your driving licence - IN YOUR CURRENT ADDRESS as proposed. Most companies want a copy, but some insist on seeing the original.
 You can upload a good copy after you order your car. When you copy or scan your licence, make sure it's clear.
For the new-style licence, make sure all of the security holograms and features are very clear and in colour.
Faxing the card is bad news because you will look like a Jamaican coal miner. On a fax the image is usually bad.
I recommend taking a photo and uploading it. The details and picture need to be very clear, not blurry at all.
|
To drive this
Mini Countryman
- you need a full driver's licence!

YOUR NEW NUMBER PLATES
|
Your car will be on the LATEST REG PLATE (at time of delivery)...
|
...unless I tell you otherwise.
Sometimes, near plate-change
dates, cars have to be registered on the "old" plate. In these rare cases, there is no difference to the
actual car, it is just numbers on the plastic reg plate.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Most cars can have private plates put on BEFORE delivery. In these cases I will need the retention certificate with the "nominee" made out to whichever
finance company I use. You can usually change to a private plate AFTER delivery, too - but in this case the finance company may apply a small fee.

More questions & answers
Taking your Mini Countryman on holiday.
 You
can take the
Mini Countryman abroad to any normal destination (usually excluding dodgy places like Albania, etc), but you should apply for
a VE103 form from the finance company before you go, which
proves to the damn foreign police that you have permission to use the car.
|
Delivery of your new Mini Countryman.
 I get the
car delivered to you at a reasonable address in the UK mainland FOR FREE. Usually, this is your home or work address. If you live somewhere like Northern Ireland or the Isle
of Wight, I deliver the
car to the mainland docks and you collect from there. Parts of Scotland can also be chargeable. It is all common sense,
really. Cars can be driven, or delivered on trailer, at the discretion of the supplier.

Returning your car
There is a MYTH that repairs can cost more
on lease cars.
This is not true.
Most repairs are tiny and can be done cheaply before your car is returned.
EASY!
RETURNING YOUR CAR
...at the end of the contract.
At the end of the contract, the
car will be inspected and returned to the finance company.
Damage will be chargeable, as will excess mileage.
But this is all reasonable.
|
This kind of damage is NOT
acceptable, hahaha!

Do you need to MOT?
An MOT is due on a new
car's third birthday. As a coincidence, many
cars on three year contracts are returned to the finance company on their third birthday, too!
Usually if your
car goes back BEFORE the MOT is due = no MOT.
Usually if
your
car goes back AFTER the MOT is due = MOT needed.
Easy!
But it's always best to check with the finance company direct as their policies may change
