Citroen Relay Ready to Run on Finance Lease

  • Priced from just £249 plus VAT a month
  • Citroen Relay Luton now on Contract Hire

Citroen Relay ‘Ready to Run’ conversions are now available on Finance Lease deals from Citroen Contract Motoring.

The French company claims that finance lease can be as tax efficient as contract hire, so can suit business users, but also offers greater flexibility with contract mileage and additional end of contract options. All prices quoted are subject to VAT.

Ready to Run range

The company’s offers are applicable to all ‘Ready to Run’ products, including the Citroen Relay tipper, Citroen Relay dropside and Citroen Relay Luton van. The disadvantages are that repair and maintenance (outside of the warranty) isn’t included and you will never take ownership of the vehicle.

“With finance lease deals starting from just £249 plus VAT per month, these new CCM finance packages are among the very best available”, James Birch, Head of Citroën Contract Motoring, explained.

“Indeed, our research shows that, like-for-like, no other manufacturer’s ready-bodied special vehicle programme is available at such competitive rates”.

Worked example

The Finance Lease deals consist of an initial payment, monthly instalments and then a final ‘balloon’ payment. The amount varies depending on the vehicle type, annual mileage and length of the term.

The Relay dropside (based on three years with 10,000 mile annual limit), for example, consists of an initial payment equal to six monthly payments (£1,494), 35 monthly payments of £249 and a balloon payment of £9,333.

Citroen Relay Luton on Contact Hire

Luton bodied vehicles are also now available on Contract Hire. A working example is the L3 variant (over three years with 10,000 mile annual limit), available from £339 per month with an initial payment of £2,034 (six monthly payments).

All Relay Ready to Run models are based on a new, high specification Relay Enterprise chassis cab, which offers the benefits of enhanced specification, with the addition of Teletrac Smartnav & Trackstar stolen vehicle tracking telematics package, air conditioning, cruise control with variable speed limiter, alarm, five-inch colour touch screen with DAB digital radio and Bluetooth and MP3.
