When returning your vehicle at the end of contract, it’s important to fully understand your obligations under the lease agreement. Most finance providers use the standards set out in the BVRLA Fair Wear & Tear Guide which is firstly, to provide information to customers about looking after a leased vehicle so that any end of contract lease charges can be avoided or at least kept to a minimum and, secondly, to provide an industry wide, accepted standard that defines what fair wear & tear is on passenger cars when they are returned to the finance company at the end of a lease agreement.
The BVRLA produce a guide that covers all passenger vehicles including multiple passenger vehicles up to eight seats and a separate guide covering commercial vehicles and minibuses.
