Car Leasing

The Albany way

Leasing without the legwork

Most leasing websites hand you a search box and thousands of prices, then leave you to figure out the rest. We work the other way round. You tell us what you're looking for - a specific car, a monthly budget, or just "something economical that fits two child seats" - and we do the searching for you.

Because we're an independent broker with a panel of carefully selected funders and a nationwide dealer network, we can compare the market on your behalf and negotiate using our buying power. You get a shortlist of clear, honest quotes rather than a wall of numbers, and a dedicated account manager on the end of the phone to answer every question.

There's no obligation at any stage of the quote process, and we'll never rush you into a decision.

Common questions about car leasing

How much does it cost to lease a car?

Your monthly rental depends on the car you choose, the contract length, your annual mileage and the size of your initial rental. As a broker we compare our panel of funders to find you a competitive price on any make and model - tell us your budget and we'll tell you what it gets you.

Do I need a deposit?

Leasing doesn't use a traditional deposit. Instead you pay an initial rental - usually the equivalent of 3, 6, 9 or 12 monthly payments - at the start of the contract. A larger initial rental lowers your monthly payments; it's the same total cost spread differently.

Can I lease if I've never leased before?

Absolutely. Most of our customers are first-time leasers. You'll need a full UK driving licence and to pass a credit check with one of our finance partners. Your account manager will guide you through every step - read our step-by-step guide to see exactly what happens.

What happens at the end of the lease?

The finance company collects the car free of charge. Provided it's within your agreed mileage and in good condition per the BVRLA Fair Wear and Tear guidelines, there's nothing more to pay - you simply choose your next car. See our end of contract guide.
