Short term car leasing in the UK for cars & vans, from 1 to 18 months — no long-term contract. Sometimes called a car subscription. Maintenance, road tax, breakdown cover, delivery and collection are all included — you just add insurance and fuel. Delivery is free across mainland Britain, excluding the Highlands.
Most of what we do is business leasing — a new starter who needs a car before their company vehicle arrives, a contractor between placements, a firm that would rather not tie capital up in a depreciating asset for four years.
Prices are shown excluding VAT. Most of our customers are businesses that reclaim it, so that is the figure they plan against.
Relocators, expats settling into the UK, businesses needing a short term car lease for a new starter, or a temporary car lease to bridge the gap between selling one car and buying the next.
“I cant rate ACL highly enough, we needed a short term lease for a Sales Person and 1 week from discussion to…”
Pick your vehicle and term, then complete our short online application.
Our underwriters confirm you're eligible — backed by 20+ years in leasing.
Arrives cleaned and ready to drive, free across mainland Britain (Highlands aside). Extend or we collect it.
Everything that makes ownership stressful is bundled in. You simply insure the car and keep it fuelled.
Just insure & fuel - we handle the restQuite a lot. Every lease covers maintenance, servicing, road tax, breakdown cover, and free delivery and collection across mainland Britain, Highlands excepted. You add two things: insurance and fuel — and a call to us when the car says a service is due, so we can book it. One monthly price, plus VAT, no surprise bills — like a phone contract, for a car.
We do, and we pay for it — but you tell us when it’s due. When the dashboard starts counting down to a service, ring us and we’ll book it at an approved service centre. We can’t see your mileage from here, and a missed service costs you the warranty.
No — and that's on purpose. A one-size policy would cost you more than sorting your own. You take out your own comprehensive cover, then cancel it when you hand the car back. We'll tell you exactly what you need before delivery.
A standard credit and identity check, the same as any lease or finance agreement. Our underwriters run it once you've applied and come back fast — usually the same day. We'll always tell you where you stand.
Yes — you can extend or change car during a short term lease. Need the car longer? Extend in a couple of clicks. Circumstances changed and you want something different? Talk to us — swapping is built into how a flexible car lease works.
Nothing you need to worry about. There's no long term contract — when your term's up we collect the car from your door, free. Want to keep going? Extend, or switch to a new vehicle. No handover fees, no end-of-contract surprises.
Yes — free delivery and collection across mainland Britain, Highlands excepted. Your car arrives 10–14 days after you order, cleaned and ready to drive. We take a little longer than a same-day hire because we deliver a car that's properly ready, to your door.
Every lease comes with a set monthly mileage allowance of 1,000 miles. Need more? Tell us up front and we'll build a higher allowance into your price — cheaper than paying excess later. We'll always show the limit before you order.
A car lease that runs from 1 to 18 months instead of the usual 2–4 years. You get a car with maintenance, road tax and breakdown cover included, for one monthly price — without being tied into a long term contract. Ideal when life's in between: relocating, a new job, or waiting on your next car.
Yes — that's exactly what we do. Choose any term from 1 to 18 months, and extend if plans change. It's the flexibility of hire with the cost and quality of leasing: a proper car, delivered to your door, without the long commitment.
Browse the fleet, pick your car and term, and apply online — our underwriters usually confirm you're eligible the same day. We deliver free across mainland Britain, Highlands aside, within 10–14 days. See the whole process →
If you need a car for months rather than years, usually yes. It's far cheaper than long-term hire. You pay one price, plus VAT, with maintenance and tax covered.
We pay for it and we book it — but you have to tell us it’s due. Here’s why, and what a missed service costs.
