What car manufacturers are available on Short Term Car Lease?
Since 2007, our short term car lease and flexilease range has grown massively. Before the lockdown, we had no less than 500 different short term car leasing deals listed on our website on both fixed contracts such as 6 month car leases to flexible car solutions.
Until the government lockdown is lifted due to Covid-19, our range is restricted but we’ve already had a number of our suppliers opening their doors up again and offering their vehicles.
So we thought we’d take the time to breakdown the brands that we ‘usually’ offer and explain a bit about each manufacturer.
Audi Short Term Car Leases
Audi has been a popular choice for many of our short term car leasing customers over the years and we’ve offered many of their models including; The Audi A1, Audi A3, Audi A4, Audi A5, Audi A6, Audi A8 along with the SUV models which include the Audi Q2, Audi Q3, Audi Q5, Audi Q7 and the amazing Audi Q8.

What is a Short Term Car Lease?
Unlike, traditional car leases that last 2, 3 or 4 years, a short term car lease can be for as little as 5 months or 6 months and tend to be a maximum of 18 months. There are lots of companies offering these in the marketplace with some on rolling 30 day contracts and others where you need to fix in.
You need to find the right short term car lease that works for you and your business. Don’t fix into a 12 month contract if you need it for 6 months, sometimes a flexible contract will be more beneficial as you can run this for the required length without the penalties.
Don’t dismiss car subscriptions, although it can be cheaper to provide your own insurance instead of taking the policy offered by the provider.
