Mini Lease Deals — Short Term, One Month to Eighteen
A Mini is a car people want rather than need, which makes it exactly the right thing to lease short term. Take it for the summer, or the year, at one fixed monthly price plus VAT — and hand it back when the novelty or the need runs out.

Why a short term MINI lease
Four years is a long time to commit to a small car with a small boot. Six or twelve months isn't. You get the drive, the interior and the badge for the period you actually want them, without the bit where you're still paying in year three and wishing you'd bought an estate.
Petrol or electric
The MINI Cooper comes both ways. The electric one is the cheaper company car by a distance — 4% Benefit-in-Kind for 2026/27 against a far higher band for the petrol — but only works if you can charge it. Availability varies, so check the term selector for what's on the fleet.
MINI short term lease questions, answered
Can we lease a Mini through the business?
Yes. Prices are quoted plus VAT, the company is underwritten rather than the driver, and each vehicle can run to its own end date.

Know the MINI you want, or just the shape of the problem?
Tell us the term and what the car has to do, and we'll tell you what's on the fleet and what it costs — plus VAT, with road tax and delivery in it. No long tie-in, no big outlay.
