How car subscription works with Flexi Drive
A car subscription, not traditional vehicle finance. You pay a monthly subscription for 24 months and drive the vehicle.
A simpler alternative to vehicle finance
Car subscription or a bank car loan
A subscription is not a loan: no bank lends you money for the car. Bank vehicle finance is a loan over several years, with insurance paid separately. A Flexi Drive subscription runs for 24 months, and comprehensive insurance, warranty, tracking and roadside assistance are in the monthly amount. About us sets the two side by side.
Four steps to your car
Step 1: Pick your car by monthly budget
Browse by what you can afford each month, not by purchase price. Every car shown can be applied for now.
Step 2: Apply online in a few minutes
A few questions about the car, your ID, contact details and income. It saves as you go, and nothing is sent until you agree.
Step 3: Risk assessment and your first payment
You will either pay your first monthly subscription payment or an initial payment, depending on your risk assessment. The amount will be confirmed before you commit.
Step 4: Sign and drive away the same day
Once your documents have been approved and your contract has been signed, you can drive away the same day.
