Short Term Car Leasing UK

Contract hire is a fixed-term agreement, and the shortest standard term is 24 months. That is the shortest we offer, alongside 36 months. We do not offer rolling monthly agreements or terms of one to three months.

If you need a car for a few weeks or a few months, you want short-term rental, which is a different product that we do not provide.

A 24-month lease keeps your commitment shorter than a three or four-year agreement. You can move to a newer car sooner, review your needs when the term ends, and plan around a fixed monthly rental in the meantime. Monthly rentals can differ between 24 and 36 months, so compare both on the deal page.

You also get a new car under the manufacturer's warranty for most of the term, so there are fewer repair surprises, and the fixed rental makes budgeting simple. Choose your annual mileage carefully, because every mile over your limit is charged when the car goes back.

For example, our lowest-priced car, the Ibiza Hatchback, is £191 a month ex VAT on a 24-month agreement, 5,000 miles a year and 9 initial rentals.

You return the car, which is checked against fair wear and tear standards and your agreed mileage. Excess mileage and damage beyond fair wear and tear can be charged. You can then lease another car or walk away, with no selling or part-exchange to arrange and no risk of what the car is worth, because you never owned it.
