Frequently Asked Questions

• General Leasing FAQs
  How Long Will My Vehicle Delivery Take?

  Delivery time really depends on several factors, including the vehicle you choose, whether it's in stock & if you're having accessories fitted. If your vehicle is in stock, available & already kitted out the way you want it, it could take as little as 2-3 weeks to be delivered.

  Can I Lease A Vehicle With Bad Credit?

  Leasing is a form of vehicle finance or credit, which means funders will look into your credit history when you apply to lease. If you’ve missed payments or cancelled finance in the past, these can negatively impact your credit score. Vanarama works with more than 10 potential funders & we’ll always try to match you with a funder to suit your needs.

  Can I Cancel A Lease Part Way Through?

  A lease contract can be cancelled by requesting an early termination. If you request this, the vehicle must be returned to the funder & you’ll pay a penalty fee - the amount varies depending on the funder & the type of lease agreement you have, but it could be more than 50% of all remaining payments. If you lease a car with us, you will be covered by Redundancy Protection. This means if due to an unexpected life event you are suddenly unable to afford your payments, we may be able to help. See more about this here.

  Which Businesses Can Lease Vehicles?

  In general, any business can lease a vehicle & benefit from the cost savings leasing offers - even new businesses.

  Can I Change My Annual Mileage Limit Mid-Contract?

  Yes, although the process will depend on which funder your lease is with & if you are eligible to do so. If you think your mileage limit needs changing, call us straight away so we can discuss your options.

  What Is The Shortest Lease Contract I Can Take?

  The shortest lease term available from Vanarama is 2 years, up to a maximum term of 5 years.

  How Does Fair Wear & Tear Work?

  If your lease contract requires you to hand your vehicle back at the end, it will be inspected by the finance company for any damage that isn’t considered ‘fair wear & tear’. The odd bump, scratch or scuff is fine - after all, you could have been driving this vehicle for up to 5 years - excessive damage is not & penalties are often charged to repair it.

• Peugeot 3008 Estate FAQs
  Is the Peugeot 3008 a good car?

  The Peugeot 3008 really does do almost everything in one package, combining a large family-friendly cabin and a flexible boot with one of the most stylish silhouettes of any crossover SUV. On top of that it’s quite possibly the most engaging-to-drive family crossover there is. Economical engines, attractive lease deals and tax-friendly hybrid choices seal the deal.

  What engines does the Peugeot 3008 come with?

  There’s a 1.5-litre diesel returning 57.8mpg and a 1.2-litre petrol 48mpg officially, meaning about 40mpg in reality. A 1.6-litre turbo petrol returns 43.3mpg equipped with the eight-speed EAT8 automatic. The best fuel returns, on paper at least, come from the hybrids. There are two: a 225 and a 300, the former with just one electric motor and the latter with two. Their mpg ratings are 157.2mpg and 166.2mpg respectively and the CO2 emissions ratings (41g/km and 39g/km) mean they’re highly tax efficient for company car drivers.

  Is the Peugeot 3008 well-equipped?

  Peugeot has priced the 3008 competitively and given the base model (called Active Premium) a lot of standard kit, so it feels like a great value family car. The i-Cockpit is standard, meaning all cars get a fully digital instrument display (usually optional in this segment), an eight-inch touchscreen infotainment setup including Apple Carplay and Android Auto, dual-zone climate control, front- and rear parking sensors and a reversing camera. Sporty GT models add styling extras that really improve the looks.

  Is the Peugeot 3008 practical?

  As with most modern Peugeots, the 3008 looks like it’s been designed with a “style over substance” brief. Thankfully that’s not the case. The 3008 effortlessly blends plenty of cabin space with its sharp looks, and the boot is not only big by volume (520 litres - one of the biggest in the class), but features a host of practicality flourishes - twin floor, bag hooks, underfloor storage. This is one of the most practical family crossovers on the market.

  Is the Peugeot 3008 reliable?

  You might be tempted to go along with the ‘French cars are unreliable” cliche but the 3008 is very likely to be a trouble-free asset during your lease period. For a start it’s built on a chassis shared with loads of other Stallantis cars including Vauxhalls, and Peugeot itself frequently does well in owner satisfaction surveys. The engines and parts are widespread and proving reliable in other cars.
