Used Car Leasing
Used Car Lease Deals
If you’re looking to lease a new car, you might not have thought to go down the route of leasing used cars. Used cars are a great option, and at Lease World, we have plenty of used cars at our disposal. We provide as much information as possible to make sure you can be 100% clued up on leasing a used car.
Why lease a used car?
There are plenty of used cars for sale UK-wide. In fact, used car sales out number new-car purchases by three to one in the UK! The best argument for leasing second hand cars is that there are so many to choose from. With around 8 million sold each year, you can really find the perfect car for you. If you’re on a budget or looking to splash out, all of the options are there. From luxury used cars, to affordable cheap used cars, the used car market truly has it all. Furthermore, by leasing quality used cars, you’ll avoid financial depreciation. You might have heard that 20% of a new car’s value is lost as soon as it leaves the showroom, this is very much true. After three years, most new cars will have lost up to two-thirds of their value. A shame for new car buyers, but this means a great deal for you!
Where do we source our pre-owned vehicles?
We’ve already gone over how many used cars are sold in the UK, and that 8 million might seem a little daunting to go through if you’re looking to buy a used car. However, we are here to help. Buying from our nominated suppliers means you’ll have all of our expertise to guide you through the buying process and you’ll have access to all of our finance options. So, let’s jump into what we do here at Lease World, and how we can help you get your next car at a good price and as fast as possible.

How much can I borrow?
We have a lender panel that can finance cars costing from £5,000 to £60,000. Plus, with our vast range of cars, you’re bound to find something within your budget.
What quality checks do you do?
All of our vehicles go through comprehensive and market-leading pre-delivery inspections and checks. We want to take the worry out of buying a used car.
When you lease a used car over 3 years old from us, it will always have a minimum 6 month MOT.
Do your used cars come with a warranty?
Every single one of our used cars comes with a minimum six-month warranty as standard. We want to make sure you feel confident knowing your used car will serve you well.
Do you offer a delivery service?
Yes! We’ll deliver your used car straight to your home address completely free. Once all of the application documents have been completed, we’ll get one of our customer service agents to call you and arrange the delivery of your car. It’s as simple as that.
What if I change my mind?
As much as we want you to be pleased with your car purchase, we understand that mistakes happen. We’re one of the few UK car supply/credit platforms that offer a 14-day right to cancel and withdraw. Once the car’s been purchased, most dealers will only let you withdraw from the finance deal which means you are still obligated to purchase the car! Our 14-day money-back guarantee allows you to withdraw from both the finance agreement and cancel the car purchase. You can walk away completely from a deal that isn’t right for you.
When is the best time to lease a used car?
Seasonal trends in the sale of new cars can actually impact the cost of used cars.
Here are our tips to bag a real bargain:
- Avoid buying convertibles in spring or summer. In winter, the demand will go down and so will the prices.
- March and September are peak months for sales of new cars (mostly through part-exchange deals). Dealers will have lots of used cars to sell so you’ll be in a strong position to negotiate.
- Dealers want to clear out used cars in July and early August ready for new models and the registration plate change on the 1st September.
- December and January are quiet months for used car sales. This means people are keen to make a deal.
- Buy four-wheel-drive cars in the summer when demand is low.
Are used cars reliable?
You might be concerned about buying a used car if you think it will be likely to break down. Maybe in the past, this presumption was right, but such huge improvements in powertrain technology, rust prevention, lubricants, and more have improved reliability and durability. Most cars can actually make it to 200,000 miles now!
What is good mileage for a used car?
In the car sales industry, ‘average mileage’ is thought to be around 10,000 to 12,000 a year.
However, in the UK, it’s more likely to be around 7,400 miles a year.
Are used cars cheaper to insure?
There aren’t clear answers on whether your used car will have an impact on your car insurance premium. It’s important to consider whether your car has safety and security features that could bring the price down. On the other hand, it will cost less for an insurance provider to replace a used car than a new one, so this could bring down the price too.
What lease terms do you offer?
For used cars the lease durations we offer are 3 or 4 years on PCP and up to 5 years on Hire Purchase.
