Do you shop online? How about getting your next lease car this way?

Hands up if you buy goods online?

You’re in good company!

Latest research shows that 92% of the UK population are Internet users and 77% of this figure made a purchase online during 2015.

So what do you buy online? Groceries? Clothing? Do you book your annual holiday online? According to Travel Weekly 8 out of 10 people do. That's a pretty high end purchase.

How about buying more expensive goods online….a car? Five years ago you probably would have laughed at the idea of organising the deal, on the 2nd most valuable possession, next to your home, over the Internet, but times are changing!

You’ve decided you want a brand new car.

Now you decide whether to buy or lease.

A new decision in the mix in 2017 is whether you complete your order online, over the phone or in person.

As far as leasing goes, it really couldn’t be simpler to complete your order online. At LittleGreenCarLeasing.com we are able to offer a fully online service and if you know what you want you can place your order for your brand new lease car in less than 15 minutes! It’s that easy.

Many of our customers choose the fully online option - they tell us they know what they want and they enjoy the convenience of being able to sit at their desk, or in the comfort of their home. The application can even be completed on a mobile, if that’s the customer’s preference.

Of course, we do have an expert team behind the scenes, on hand to answer questions by phone or email, and some customers still want this one-to-one support.

Interestingly, figures released by Hyundai show that the number of customers wanting to test drive vehicles has dropped over the years and now, only 53% are choosing to test drive the vehicle they are ordering.

The convenience of online shopping means no more haggling with a dealer, no more putting up with being ‘sold’ to and a huge tick in the box for your convenience.
