Contract Purchase

Contract purchase is a flexible purchase option that defers part of the purchase cost to the end of the agreement.  It allows you to have the use of a vehicle for a fixed period of time, with a predetermined mileage at a fixed monthly cost.  It is a tax efficient method for companies who are generating taxable profits and require the benefits of capital allowances to minimise their tax charge.  At the end of the contract there is an option to repurchase the vehicle for an agreed price set at the start of the contract, based upon an agreed mileage, period and condition of car.

Road fund licence, maintenance and breakdown cover can be included within the monthly payment if required.
