Lease guides
We have a huge range of makes and models available, including Audi, BMW and Volkswagen, plus many more.
Don't know which car you want? We have all different body types available, as well as electric lease deals if you're thinking about making the switch. You'll also find affordable options with our latest special offers.
Whatever car you want, we're sure to have it at a great price. Simply use our range of filter options to find the right vehicle for you.
Once you've found your desired car, customise your lease agreement.
Your initial rental is a one-time upfront payment that's usually the same amount as 3, 6 or 9 months' worth of your lease payments.
For example, if your car lease was £200 per month, a 3-month initial rental payment would be £600. The higher your initial rental, the cheaper your monthly lease payment.
After customising your lease deal, we'll give you a quote online or over the phone. If you're happy to go ahead, you can complete your application by filling in a short form online.
The information is passed onto our helpful team who will then run a standard credit check. Providing you pass the credit check, then your lease application will be approved.
Car leasing is a type of finance so it can impact your credit score, just like any other monthly payment (such as a phone bill, a loan or a credit card). Make sure that you can make your monthly payments on time every month.
Once your lease application is approved, we'll provide an estimated delivery date for the vehicle. You'll be given access to our online portal to get updates on any progress.
We'll also send you official documentation via post that you'll need to sign and send back to us.
You can check for updates on your lease agreement and the delivery of your car with our easy online portal.
We'll confirm a delivery date and address and have your brand-new car delivered, ready for you to drive.
All our lease cars are delivered free to anywhere within mainland UK.
Now that you have read our recommended guide for your first car lease, why not get in touch with us, or look for a deal on our site.
What is car leasing?
Car leasing lets you 'rent' a brand new car for 2-4 years.
Simply choose the car you want and we'll help you find a great deal. When your lease ends, you return the vehicle. It's as simple as that.
If you like driving a different new car every few years while paying the same amount every month, leasing could be the perfect choice.

Like any type of finance, it's better to have a good credit score when you apply. This reassures the lender that you're reliable and will make payments on time. However, this isn't the only factor considered and you may still be approved, regardless of your credit score.
Always opt for a reliable, trusted company when leasing a car. Here at Rivervale, we're rated 5* on TrustPilot, with over 2,000 verified customer reviews. Our friendly team will help find you the best car for your needs and budget. What's more, we have no hidden charges and never take admin fees, so you know exactly how much you'll pay for your new car.
Yes, all our lease cars are brand new, which is why many include the manufacturer's warranty. You also won't need to pay for an MOT if your lease deal is under three years, as new cars don't require one.
Your initial rental will be collected by direct debit shortly after the delivery of your new vehicle, this is usually within 7-10 days.
