Lease guides
When you need transport for larger groups and gatherings, we’re here to cover your needs with D1 licence leasing.
Any factory built minibus weighs over 3.5 tonne and as such a D1 is required on your license to drive the vehicle. We can help you obtain your D1 licence via our Minibus Driver Training programme
At Rivervale, we stock a range of commercial vehicles, including larger minibuses with 9 to 16 seats which to drive legally will require a D1 licence. Vehicles under 3.5 tonne require a B1 licence which is included in a normal car driving licence.
From organising multiple transports for major events to transporting groups of employees, clients or small classes, our large minibuses are suited to a wide range of assignments. Browse our selection from brands such as Ford and Renault to find exactly what you need.
Considered best-in-class by many, the Ford Transit Minibus is one of the most popular large minibuses out there. It boasts a range of industry-leading safety and security features along with spacious design for total passenger comfort. Now fitted with an EcoBlue diesel engine, it’s both economical and enjoyable to drive.
From well-compartmentalised cabin space and ample load space to refined interiors, we stock only the best minibus lease deals from top providers. From safety to accessibility features such as grab rails and electric steps, our models meet top industry standards. They’re also incredibly spacious, to ensure passengers aren’t just comfortable but enjoy their journey, no matter how long.
