Vehicle Leasing FAQs

Find answers to our most commonly asked questions about flexible business and personal vehicle leasing.

What is flexible vehicle leasing?

Flexible vehicle leasing provided by SOGO is a short-term rental agreement that allows you or your company to use a car or van for a set period of time from as little as one month at a fixed price with a range of all-inclusive benefits.

Flexible vehicle leasing is often a cheaper and more flexible alternative to buying a new car or van than a bank loan or vehicle dealer finance.

What is the difference between business and personal vehicle leasing?

If you represent a limited company, are in a business partnership, operate as a sole trader or LLP, you may be eligible for business leasing.

Business car leasing has positive tax implications where you can reclaim up to 50% of the rental (for cars) or up to 100% (on commercial vehicles).

Personal vehicle leasing is similar to a business contract with the exception of reclaiming any VAT.

Personal leasing can be an option for certain businesses. For example, if you are self-employed and have just started your own business, you may not yet have the credit history most lenders require to apply for a business lease.
