VEHICLE MAINTENANCE CONTRACT
When you take out a personal or business contract hire agreement, you can add a maintenance package for a fixed monthly fee. This will give you complete peace of mind that any unexpected vehicle repair costs you may not have budgeted for, will be covered.

Maintenance contracts are offered by the finance provider and can vary from policy to policy. Generally, most maintenance contracts include:
- Routine Servicing (as required by the manufacturer)
- Mechanic repairs due to fair wear and tear
- Tyre repair and/or like-for-like replacement (exclusions apply)
- Batteries
- Exhausts
- Breakdown assistance
- MOT (if applicable)
If you are interested in taking out a maintenance contract with your lease agreement, we will provide you with a full list of inclusions and exclusions offered by your finance provider.
