Car subscription is an alternative to leasing and ownership. With car subscriptions you can subscribe to a vehicle for 1-24 months and you have the flexibility to change the car, subscription length, and mileage package. At the end you can renew or swap into a new one!
How is car subscription flexible? Car subscription is considered to be a flexible service because you have the ability to change car and subscription length when you want. Instead of being tied into a long-term fixed contract, car subscription gives you the freedom to find what works best for you. All you have to do is get in contact with one of our friendly team members and they can help change your car or subscription length over. If, for example, you originally subscribed to a Mercedes for 24 months but after 6 you decide you want to drive a BMW, all you need to do is contact our team either via email, phone call, or the website.
How is car subscription all-inclusive? Wrapped up in one monthly payment is the cost of your chosen car, MOT, maintenance (excluding accidental damage), and road tax. Unlike car leasing when you often have to pay an additional fee, with car subscription all of our subscriptions are all-inclusive as standard.
When will I be charged for my subscription car? The payment method for car subscription differs to other forms of leasing because you’re not asked to pay an upfront initial rental. Instead of paying thousands of pounds upfront, Mycardirect simply ask for a £250 joining fee which is a one-off making you a member for life, and then a small fully refundable deposit (normally either £250 or £500). Neither of these payments are taken until a week before your delivery so please be assured if you change your mind you’re not stuck in any long-term agreements. The first monthly payment isn’t taken until 24 hours prior to your car’s delivery and thereafter will be set up as a monthly direct debit.
Is car insurance included with car subscription? Some car subscription companies do offer insurance policies at extra cost and others don’t. With Mycardirect you have the choice to opt in to a Wagonex insurance policy during the application process. However, we like to give our customers the freedom to find an insurance policy that works best for them. You simply have to send over a copy of your insurance certificate at least 48 hours prior to delivery and we’re good to go.
