A finance lease is a contract that allows you to pay for a vehicle over a set duration at fixed pre-determined rates. On a VW this period is usually four years. The finance lease model does not provide ownership of the vehicle and all payments are Plus VAT. If you are VAT registered, VAT is claimed back quarterly on this agreement. Even though the agreement is over four years, most customers will part-exchange the vehicle back to us before the three-year point and a have a new vehicle. This way you are always having a vehicle that is under warranty, whilst having the tax and VAT benefits (If applicable).

With a Hire Purchase agreement, you essentially pay the VAT as a deposit upfront, if you are VAT registered you can claim this back at your next VAT quarter. You then pay for the vehicle over 2,3,4 years with an option of having a final payment at the end of the term, which will lower the monthly payments for you. You can own the vehicle outright once the contract is complete.

On either agreement, you have the option to add upgrades to your vehicle, such as leather seats, body kits, upgraded alloys wheels etc. and spread the cost within your monthly repayments.

The primary difference between the two models is the passenger and cargo carrying capacity.

If you wish to have more space for passengers, the Kombi van provides seating for 5 to 6 people, while offering smaller cargo space.

In contrast, the Panel Van offers more substantial cargo space, while having the option to accommodate 2 to 3 passengers.

Please note that both Kombi and Panel models are eligible for claiming VAT.

Yes, you can divide the cost of your upgrades and additionally selected options to the monthly leasing contract and pay as you go along!

The choice between leasing the vehicle or purchasing it outright depends on the individual requirements of your company. If you want to claim the VAT back in full, then a Hire Purchase is the best way forward.

Generally, a Finance Lease provides the lowest deposit and monthly repayments whilst offering the easiest route to having a brand-new vehicle every two or three years.

It is always best to speak to your accountant for the best VAT and tax benefits for your business, where applicable.

The Direct Shift Gearbox, or DSG, is an innovative new technology developed by VW that combines the ease of automatic transmission with the convenience of manual control. The Gearbox is composed of a dual clutch system that anticipates your next switch and pre-emptively readies the gears to make the switch smooth and fast, taking less the four-hundredths of a second to make the switch.

The primary difference between the versions is their load carrying capacity. The naming convention mentions the nominal weight that is supported by the vehicle in tons. For example, the T26 variant has a gross vehicle weight of 2.6 tons and so forth. The larger the weight variant, the larger the carrying capacity of the vehicle generally. The vehicles can be equipped with varying engine capacities.

We offer the T28, T30, and T32 variants in the Panel van model, and the T30 and T32 variants in the Kombi model, and there are different VAT rules that apply to each variant.

The Panel Van offers a standard option of three seats at the front, with the ability to select two as an option.

The Kombi Van offers five seats as the standard version, with the ability to choose 6 as an option.

If more than 6 passenger seats are required, you may opt for the Shuttle or Caravelle models.

We offer two engine capacitates: 150bhp, and 199bhp.

The 150bhp variant can be upgraded with DSG and manual 4Motion four-wheel drive.

The 199bhp variant comes pre-packaged with DSG, while the DSG 4Motion four-wheel drive feature remains optional.

When leasing the vehicle, the deposit can vary and you can expect to either pay anything from a single payment up front at the time of the lease, ranging up to half the value of the vehicle. Obviously the more you put down, the lower your monthly repayments will be over the term. Most of our advertised deposits start are around £3000 + VAT.

The payment is calculated plus VAT, which can also be claimed back by registered lessees on a quarterly basis, if they are VAT registered.

(This differs for customers who are flat rate VAT registered. It is always best to seek clarity from your accountant about what is the best option for you).

In the case of a hire purchase contract, a minimum payment of 20% of the worth of the vehicle is required, equal to the VAT, which is also reclaimable. You can pay an additional deposit on top of this if you wish.
