One of the main reasons why more and more businesses and individuals are choosing Car Leasing as a means of financing a new car or van is that they are fed up of the high depreciation rates that affect most vehicles nowadays. Most cars end up being worth between 30% and 50% of their purchase price after three years, with few exceptions, so this can represent a huge capital loss to the owner.

One of the benefits of Car Leasing is that it can be much more cost-effective, especially if you take advantage of a special deal or manufacturer’s offer, as the total cost of your rentals over the contract period is usually less than the amount that the vehicle has depreciated over that time.

However, there are many more benefits of leasing a car than the depreciation issue.
