Fully maintained contracts offer you and your company convenience and reassurance, knowing that you will not be faced with unexpected bills, and enabling you to budget company car maintenance costs with confidence and total control.
Our aim is to find the right solution from our wide range of products and services and recommend that you compare contracts without maintenance and contracts with full maintenance prior to signing. Contract agreements that include maintenance are constructed to cover all your motoring costs excluding fuel and insurance.
Fixed cost motoring could be cheaper and more cost effective than you think. Fully maintained contract agreements are not just for fleets; they are also ideal for SMEs and individuals who want to fix their costs.
Contract companies are able to spread the scale of maintenance and tyre expenditure risk across thousands of vehicles, which in turn if you a choose contracts with maintenance, that offer you fixed cost vehicle service and maintenance budgeting with no risk of unforeseen maintenance expenditure. Things like clutch replacement, battery or mechanical failure happen and sometimes they don’t, but if they do contracts with maintenance will cover these unforeseen costs.
While the service intervals may vary between different car brands, there are common themes across all car makes and models that call for servicing by dashboard digital request. For example the most common maintenance checks are: 12 months or 10,000 miles for service A and 20,000 for service B which is a more in depth service and maybe more expensive.
What can be overlooked is that if you have a non-maintained contract and there is a dashboard digital request, or service due prior to the end of contract you would be liable for the costs. Your vehicles service manual lists the maintenance items to be performed at various mileage intervals it is in your interest to take this into account to determine if a contract with maintenance may be more suitable for your requirements.
Contract providers are more likely to achieve a profit on end of contract sale if the vehicle is complete with full service history, making maintained contracts a more attractive proposition than those of non-maintained contracts.
To encourage maintained contact business, contract providers may often offer incentives such as reduced cost of funding or an increase in predicted future residual value of the car; both of these factors effectively lower the cost of the rental making a fully maintained contract a more cost effective proposition in some instances.
Always compare contracts with and without maintenance, as the saving may surprise you.
