The
cost of Fiesta Car Leasing Delivery
Time4leasing have 3 Fiesta car suppliers for the Short Term
and
long term car leasing. Thought to let you know what really goes on in the
Internet
Ford Fiesta Supplier Delivery 1
This supplier does do free delivery / collection except to Scotland. Major
player on the Internet so customers must enquire and process
application through Time4leasing only.
Disadvantage with this supplier is that the Insurance has to be
done through their panel of Insurers and it seems from the
feedback we have received that this is sometimes a bit expensive.
However, we do have other suppliers that do similar deals and you can use your own insurance if you wish, making the whole cost far cheaper. You have this option.
-
This supplier has Ford Fiesta vehicles from 24 months to up to 48 months contract hire and
PCP lease contracts.
Ford Fiesta Supplier Delivery 2
This supplier does not do any Free Delivery / Collection. We have to quote
customers using Google Maps at £1.25 per mile under 100 miles
and £1 per mile over 100 miles. We worked out as an example the
cost of delivery to a customers address which was £119 each way
plus VAT
Then again if you include that into the monthly lease that would
make it around £20 more per month.
-
WE only use this
supplier therefore for people within a reasonable vicinity of
the depot (this is why we have requested towns / postal codes
instead of Regions on the enquiry form)
-
This supplier
underwrites in-house so is not prepared to take any risks with
adverse credit histories
-
Restricted Mileage
Limits - the car is only available on 12000 mpa with no option
to extend but has better colour choice

Supplier
Delivery
3
This supplier does do free delivery / collection except to Scotland. For Scotland
the delivery charge could be as much as £200 each way -
nothing we could do about that! Obviously if the supplier was
based in Scotland this wouldn't have happened or the customer
collected from the depot.
-
Restricted
choice in colour - on 12 months currently only have beige or
green in 3 door, and 5 week order on 5 door model which some
clients don't want to wait for. More colours are due
in.
-
Restricted
Mileage Limits - the car is only available on 12000 mpa with
no option to extend £100 Admin Fee charged by the Funder
-
Only have
vehicles on 24 month lease
As you
can see from these 3 above supplier profiles, we have to mix and match
the best supplier to the enquiry, both on locality, colour, mileage
and price and with the best will in the world this is not always
manageable to suit the client.
EXAMPLE: Customers
want free delivery from Supplier 1 but don't want the admin fee, and they want a
black car which is only available from supplier 2.
To
Summarise
Delivery
It is difficult to meet all the clients expectations, but we do
try very hard to do our best and get customers the best deals and offer suitable
alternatives to them.
We currently have a
lady in Wales who desperately wanted the black fiesta but we can only get a
black one from the supplier who charges delivery and the price was £262.00 Excl
vat each way 262 miles at £1 per mile.
She simply could not
afford to pay this for a 12 month lease but did not want to take a
2 year deal as she is thinking of travelling abroad in 12-18
months time.
Also, customers often request different models - these short term
deals are not available on all Fiesta's in the range.
The offer is generally based on one car which is currently the
1.25 so if they ask for a 1.4 or 1.6 model on the 12 month deal
they cannot have it as it is not available.
The 12 month deal is quite simply on the 1.25 Fiesta and no other
Fiesta.
Customers also often ask if the car leasing price includes
Insurance and Maintenance and it does not include either.
Then again its a brand new car so what can go wrong and it is
under manufacture's warranty anyway.
