2 Contract hire With contract hire from Arval your customers will benefit from new cars and LCVs without having to find the initial capital outlay to purchase them. They don t have the hassle associated with buying vehicles or the worry of what they may be worth when selling them on as we arrange this, and take any depreciation risks. Your customer chooses a contract length and mileage allowance that suits their business needs and budget, for example from two to five years and 10,000 to 120,000 miles if petrol engine, or 150,000 if diesel. We can include routine maintenance and tyres within the contract giving your client completely hassle free motoring. They simply lease the vehicles for a fixed monthly cost over two to five years, depending on their specific needs. What s more as funding through contract hire keeps the vehicles off their balance sheets, this funding method can offer VAT efficiencies and improves cash flow.
