Many businesses now provide company cars for their employees – there are approximately over 1.5 million people driving company cars in the UK. For new businesses, buying a fleet of cars outright requires a massive cash outlay, which is the last thing you want when setting up a business. Even for established companies, the majority of their company cars will have been bought around the same time and so will most likely need replacing at the same time. With the current unstable market too, many businesses are suddenly having to downsize and so will suddenly have a load of extra cars on their hands to try and sell on. One way of saving your business some money is through company car leasing.
There are numerous advantages to company car leasing. For starters, the initial cash outlay is obviously significantly reduced as you are only having to pay much smaller monthly payments rather than thousands of pounds all in one go. Even with finance deals, you would still have to pay a hefty initial deposit, whereas car leasing deals such as those from CLVR usually only require between one and three months' worth of payments as a deposit. Paying monthly also means that you can use the monthly income from your business to make the payments, rather than finding initial investment cash.

Car leasing also allows you to upgrade your fleet of cars every few years, where you might not ordinarily have the cash to do so. Getting a newer model will make sure your employees are always driving with the latest safety standards in place, and are also making the most of fuel efficiency technology as it is developed, which is now a major focus for car manufacturers as they want to be as 'green' as possible. For businesses too, there is a great concern about reducing their carbon footprint, and if cars are required for your business travel then making sure you have the latest models will help to do this more easily. Newer cars will also save your business money through minimal repair and MOT costs. And of course, a shiny new car looks nicer for your business image than a beat up old banger! Car lease deals now often come with service packages included so all your costs can be covered in one go.
Getting your company cars through car leasing deals will also save your employees money. Although company cars save your employees money through not having to buy a car in the first place, as well as having no insurance and road tax (and often fuel) to pay, they will have to pay extra tax, known as 'benefit in kind'. Leasing a car instead eliminates this tax, which must make for a happier workforce!
You needn't spend hours searching around for competitive prices and good value deals either. CLVR act as a broker between you and car lease companies across the UK to find the best deals around, usually saving about 40% off the regular listed price.
