Does Leaseacar stock the cars that are leased?

No, Leaseacar is an independent multi-brand car expert, specialising in new and like-new cars. We commit to find the best quality car deal corresponding to your needs and preferences.

What does a like-new car mean?

A like-new car is one that is between 6 months and 2 years old and has been driven for a maximum of 30,000 kilometers—a car as good as new but a lot cheaper to lease. Most of these cars come with a remaining balance of the manufacturer warranty. If in case there is no remaining balance, Leaseacar adds a warranty of at least 12 months.

Why is leasing a like-new car a good deal?

An average new car loses up to 20% of its initial price in a year assuming it’s driven 15,000 km/yr. Leaseacar targets cars that are 2 years old and have a maximum of 30,000 kilometres. This has proven to be the best leasing deal condition for a like-new car.

Does Leaseacar also lease brand new cars?

Yes, Leaseacar’s trusted car sources also include new cars. There are times when certain brands offer very attractive prices on new cars, and the slight price difference between new and like-new makes it a better deal to opt for a new car.

What is a trusted car source?

The main trusted car sources include all independent garages, official country car importers, retail car dealerships, and companies owning their fleet of cars. Leaseacar’s team of car experts have been transacting with these trusted car sources since 2002. We are known pros in the car market—we do what we say and say what we do. A trusted car source is one that shares the same values as Leaseacar.

Can I refuse to accept the car if the specifications do not match as described in the contract?

At Leaseacar your car is selected specifically for you and sourced from our trusted partners exactly as per your requirements and your desired specifications. Multiple quality checks are executed by our car experts to ensure your car is in neat condition and matches your requirements precisely. But if at the time of delivery you find the car is different from what is mentioned in the contract—colour mismatch, manual transmission instead of automatic transmission—you can, of course, refuse to accept it. We say this with pride that none of Leaseacar’s vehicles have ever been rejected.

Are the cars offered for lease from Switzerland?

The Swiss car market is relatively small—roughly 300,000 new cars and 800,000 used cars are sold per year. Since Leaseacar operates at a national and international level, we always compare the car prices between the Swiss and European markets, and where it makes good business sense, we source cars from Europe.

Are the monthly lease payments made to Leaseacar?

No. It is only the first installment payment that is made to Leaseacar. The remaining monthly lease payments are paid by you directly to the leasing company.

What is the first installement payment used for?

After you finalise your car choice, Leaseacar has to buy it from its car sources to prepare the car for delivery. Once you make the first installment payment to Leaseacar, our car experts procure your future car from trusted car suppliers and initiate the quality control process.

Can the monthly lease payments be made using a credit card?

No. You can make your monthly lease payments using one of the following options—direct debit, standing order, monthly payment slip.

Can I purchase extra kilometers in the middle of a lease?

If early on in your lease you realize that you will be driving much more than you expected, you can contact Leaseacar to see if you can be allowed to revise the lease to permit a higher mileage. Most lessors do not allow extra kilometers to be bought mid-lease. Give us a call.

Is there a refund if less kilometers are consumed at the end of the lease?

No, there is no refund if less kilometers are consumed. However, if the kilometers are considerably lower than the lease allowance, it means that the car could be worth more than the agreed residual value. Therefore this could be a good buy for you if you wish to keep the car.

What happens if I need to terminate my lease early?

In the event of early lease termination, the leasing company charges you a penalty. Your leasing contract contains a complete schedule of the month-to-month degressive penalty that you will have to pay if you opt for early termination of your lease.

Can Leaseacar help me in the case of an early lease termination?

Yes. Please contact Leaseacar when your decision of early termination is made. We will check the potential market value of your car and help you sell it to ease your early lease termination penalty. Give us a call.

Is it possible to buy the car before the lease ends?

Yes, you can. The current value of your car can be provided either by Leaseacar or the leasing company. If this value suits your budget you can proceed with the purchase. Contact our car experts for further details.

Who owns the car during the term of the lease?

Though the car is yours to drive, legally the car is the property of the leasing company for the duration of the lease term.

What happens if my residential address changes during the lease term?

You need to share your new address details with the leasing company. If the canton in your address stays the same, you only have to order a new grey card from the registration center. If you change canton you will have to re-register your car in the new canton and change your plates.

What is a car residual value in a leasing contract?
