Van Leasing Sponsor coming very soon

[Dan]

We have a new sponsor comning on board, this will be for most of our websites.

The sponsor is a Van Leasing company, we're in final talks with two at the moment and are just getting the best deal out of one of them. Obviously we want this to be a long-standing thing so we're making sure it's right for us all before we announce which one and full details.

I've been looking into this a bit though and it seems you can get decent new vans for a very reasonable monthly fee after you've taken the tax benefits into account. Upto 40% of the costs can be recouped throughout the term and we're getting decent rates as part of the scheme too.

An example given to me was

If you are a higher rate tax payer (currently 40% for non limited companies) you will in effect get 40% of your payment paid back from the tax man.
e.g.

New Navara 2.5 Sport Double Cab
Deposit £2500 less 40% tax benefit =£1500
Weekly Payment £54.98 less 40% tax benefit = £32.98

or, as a 20% tax payer

Deposit £2500 less 20% tax benefit =£1925
Weekly Payment £54.98 less 20% tax benefit = £43.33

Although this is one of the more expensive vehicles.

For a Renault Kangoo

With maximum tax allowance,
your weekly payment of £32.99
becomes
£17.38 a week

And your deposit of
£1750
becomes a
£1050 deposit

I'll keep you posted.

Excellent news.....

Good for both new and existing businesses I think, though I dare say this is one of the sponsors we'll need to have for some time for it to benefit all the members. But the more that get the deals, the better the deals will become in the future for us.

Needless to say, I'll be the guinea pig so I'll keep you posted on that too. :hurray:

I'm very much looking forward to knowing which company it is. My husband does van leasing but I bet it's not his company as they don't seem to be particularly forward thinking.

It'll be another week or two before we announce who it is but I best if you asked your fella he'd know if it was the company he worked for. There is a kind-of local, though the other is way way way down south. Both are keen already online therefore they're geared up for national leasing though.

Hubby says it won't be his company. He very much doubts it would be something they do. Shame cos the business will be going to other leasing companies and he'll be missing out! oh well, never mind. :8:
